history
Local history
Trahnow was first mentioned in a document in 1380 in a Bohemian feudal register. In the fight against the Hussites , Thrana and the neighboring town of Jerchwitz had to provide a carriage and a captain.
Since the second half of the 17th century the place belonged to the Maltitz manor .
Jerchwitz was incorporated into Thräna in 1928. In the course of the Germanization policy during the Nazi era, Thräna was renamed Stiftwiese in 1936. On April 1, 1938, the parish was incorporated into Groß Radisch , in whose church Thräna was certainly already parish in pre-Reformation times.
After the Second World War, the place was formally given its old name back in 1947.
Both in the Prussian district of Rothenburg (Ob. Laus.) And from 1952 in the district of Niesky , the district border ran south of Thräna to the district of Görlitz and the district of Görlitz-Land . As a result of the Saxon district reform, this district border disappeared on August 1, 1994 with the formation of the Lower Silesian Upper Lusatia District .
Through the merger of the communities of Gebelzig , Groß Radisch and Weigersdorf on July 1, 1995, Thräna became part of the newly formed community of Hohendubrau . Since another district reform on August 1, 2008, Thräna has been in the Görlitz district.

When the country was examinated in 1777, six possessed men , three gardeners and four cottagers were reported for Thrana.
In the middle of the 19th century the number of inhabitants rose from 138 (1825) to over 200, but a sharp decline can already be observed around the establishment of the empire, so that in 1905 with 142 inhabitants, only 4 more than 80 years earlier were counted. Through the incorporation of Jerchwitz , the number of inhabitants rose again to almost 200 in the interwar period.
Towards the end of the 20th and beginning of the 21st century, the population was around 80.
language
For his statistics on the Sorbian population in Upper Lusatia, Arnošt Muka determined a population of 195 in the 1880s, including 155 Sorbs (79%) and 40 Germans. However, Thräna was already at the very edge of the language area, so that the language change to German was largely completed by the middle of the 20th century. In 1956 Ernst Tschernik had only 15 Sorbian-speaking residents in the entire community of Groß Radisch, to which Thräna now belonged, including one young person.
Place name
Document mentions of the place name include Trahnow (1380), Drenaw (1400), Tränaw (1658), Trehna (1759), Drähna (1791) and Thräna (1831). Drjenow (1800) and Drjenjow (1843) have been handed down as Sorbian variants of the name , the shift from -je- to - ě - seems to be more recent and can be proven in 1959.
As with Drehna near Uhyst (Sorbian Tranje ), the name is probably derived from the Old Sorbian dren ' dogwood , cornel cherry'. Both places also have in common that they were given new German names in 1936 with Stiftswiese (Thräna) and Grünhain (Drehna).
