The place Schlalach was first secured and mentioned in writing in 1375 as Slanlach in Charles IV's land register. The von Oppen family held the manorial rule over the place at that time . In 1669 the current name was mentioned. The place name comes from the Slavic word Slony lug and describes a swampy forest clearing . The place is near salt pits that were formerly used for salt extraction.

During the Thirty Years War Schlalach was badly damaged and almost completely depopulated. As a result, the estate went into debt, so that the von Oppen family sold it to the Great Elector Friedrich Wilhelm of Brandenburg in 1681 and Schlalach came to the Saarmund office . The estate was then dissolved. The land was divided up and leased as an inheritance . This enabled the village to generate a small amount of prosperity .

In 1837 there were 60 houses in Schlalach, in 1902 there were 102 houses. In 1906 there were three restaurants in the village. In 1922 and 1923 Schlalach was connected to the electricity network.

At the end of the Second World War , Schlalach was highly competitive, which is why a large part of the population left the place. After the fighting ended, Schlalach only had three residents. During the GDR era, an agricultural production cooperative was founded in Schlalach in 1953 . Ten years later the village received electric street lighting. Between 1970 and 1982 the road and canal network was expanded. After the fall of the Wall , the road to Treuenbrietzen was renewed, the fire station was expanded and the village square in Schlalach was redesigned.

Schlalach has always been part of the Kingdom of Prussia . On July 25, 1952, the community was assigned to the then newly formed Belzig district in the Potsdam district . After the reunification , Schlalach was in the Belzig district in Brandenburg and joined the Niemegk office on February 11, 1992 . After the district reform in Brandenburg on December 6, 1993 , Schlalach finally came to the newly formed district of Potsdam-Mittelmark . On July 1, 2002 Schlalach was merged together with the previously independent communities Haseloff-Grabow , Nichel and Niederwerbig to form the new community Mühlenfließ .

In 2010 a wind farm was built in Schlalach . This consists of 22 Enercon E32 / E2 plants with a nominal output of 2.3 MW each. The hub height of the system is 138 meters. The system was initially built with 16 systems, and six more were added in 2016. The turbines have a rotor diameter of 82 meters each.
