history

The place Schlettau in the hall circle of the Archbishopric Magdeburg was under aristocratic jurisdiction for several centuries. The Fuhne running in the northeast formed the border to the Principality of Anhalt . With the annexation of the Duchy of Magdeburg to Prussia, Schlettau belonged to the Brandenburg-Prussian Duchy of Magdeburg from 1680 . With the Peace of Tilsit in 1807 Schlettau was incorporated into the Kingdom of Westphalia and assigned to the Halle district in the Saale department. The place belonged to the canton Löbejün . After Napoleon's defeat and the end of the Kingdom of Westphalia, Napoleon's allied opponents liberated the Saalkreis in early October 1813. During the political reorganization after the Congress of Vienna in 1815, Schlettau was attached to the Merseburg administrative district of the Prussian province of Saxony and assigned to the Saalkreis.

On July 1, 1950, Schlettau was incorporated into the town of Löbejün. On January 1, 2011, the cities of Löbejün and Wettin as well as the municipalities of Brachwitz , Döblitz , Domnitz , Gimritz , Nauendorf , Neutz-Lettewitz , Plötz and Rothenburg , which had previously been merged in the Saalkreis Nord administrative association , were merged to form the new city of Wettin-Löbejün . Since then, Schlettau has been part of the village of Löbejün of the city of Wettin-Löbejün.
