Analogous to many places in the region, the settlement took place at the instigation of Count Wiprecht von Groitzsch in the 12th century. The Waldhufendorf Schwaben was mentioned in 1290 as "Swaben". The place name arose from the origin of the settlers who came from the Schwabengau (area around Saale , Bode and Unstrut ). Similar to the neighboring town of Franconia, the place name is related to the first settlers. Swabia has probably belonged to the Remse Monastery , which was dissolved in the course of the Reformation in 1533 and was a subsidiary of the Bürgel Monastery in Thuringia, since the 12th century . This is indicated by a document from 1390 and the "Mönchsteig" between Swabia and Remse , which still exists today .

In 1488, half of the village had to be returned to the Lords of Schönburg from Remse Monastery by a judgment by the Saxon Elector Friedrich the Wise . As a result, Swabia was separated into two differently administered parts, the larger Schönburg and the smaller Saxon, until the 19th century. While Swabia (Schönburg. Share) was under the Schönburg rule of Waldenburg as an official village , Swabia (Saxon share) belonged since then with the places Tirschheim (today part of St. Egidien ), Reichenbach (today: part of Callenberg ) and Wickersdorf (Saxon part ) (today: district of Oberwiera ) to the Tirschheim manor . This was administered as an Electoral Saxon fiefdom by the Lords of Schönburg . The assignment of the lordship of Tirschheim changed due to multiple shifts of property within the von Schönburg family between the Schönburg lordships of Penig and Remse, which were also under electoral Saxon feudal rule . From 1797, the Tirschheim estate was part of the rent office of the Schönburg (recess) lordship of Waldenburg, while the higher and inheritance courts were administered by the bailiff of the Schönburg feudal lordship Remse .

After separating from Remse Monastery with Dürrenuhlsdorf and the Schlagwitz mother church, Swabia belonged to Wolkenburg until 1533 . By order of Ernst von Schönburg , Swabia was parish off to Waldenburg in 1533. The local church was probably built in the 15th century in the late Gothic style. In 1926 the Swabian Church was assigned to Schlagwitz and in 2001 to the parish of Waldenburg. Schooling in Swabia is already recorded in 1683, the first school building for 1768. The school building, which is now used for private residential purposes, was built in 1857.

The relationship between the Kingdom of Saxony and the House of Schönburg was reorganized in 1835. The areas under Saxon feudal rule, such as the rule of Remse and the manor of Tirschheim, were placed under the administration of the royal Saxon office of Zwickau . On September 25, 1856, the judicial powers of the Tirschheim lordship as well as those of the Remse lordship were ceded to the Saxon state. Since then, Swabia (Saxon Ant.), Like the other associated places, was administered by the Remse court office until the administration in the Kingdom of Saxony was reorganized in 1875 .

From 1875 Swabia (Saxon Ant.) Was initially part of the Zwickau administration . After an administrative reform was carried out in the area of ​​the Schönburg recession in 1878, in 1880 both parts of Swabia came together to the newly founded Saxon governorate of Glauchau . Swabia belonged to the Free State of Saxony from 1918.

Due to the second district reform in the GDR , the municipality of Swabia came to the Glauchau district in the Chemnitz district in 1952 (renamed the Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ). On July 1, 1969, Swabia was incorporated into the municipality of Dürrenuhlsdorf. As a district of the municipality of Dürrenuhlsdorf, Swabia came to the Saxon district of Glauchau in 1990 , which was added to the district of Chemnitzer Land in 1994 and in 2008 in the district of Zwickau. With the incorporation of the municipality of Dürrenuhlsdorf, Swabia became a part of the city of Waldenburg on January 1, 1999.
