The village, which was built around the middle of the 12th century as a street green village and now has around 600 inhabitants, was mentioned for the first time in 1198 when it was donated to the Sitzenroda nunnery .
The church Schmannewitz (1731–32) and parsonage were built on a hill in the middle of the village that rises above the village street . Because of its master builder George Bähr , the builder of the Dresden Frauenkirche , it is considered the most important sight in Schmannewitz.
