There have been a few changes of ownership over the centuries. Originally belonging to the Meissen margrave as a fiefdom , the place, the size of which was given as 15 hooves around 1406, belonged to Hayn Castle in 1378 and to the town of Hayn from 1554. From 1648 Strießen finally belonged to the Naundorf manor.

During the Thirty Years War Strießen was hit by several plague epidemics. The epidemic claimed a total of 67 victims in Strießen between 1631 and 1637 alone.
