In the early modern period , Winkwitz was administered from Meißen. In the middle of the 16th century, the place belonged to the Meißen hereditary office (partly also to the Oschatz office ), then in the middle of the 19th century to the Meißen office and from 1856 to the Meißen court office. From 1875 the administration was then incumbent on the Meißen district administration . Before Winkwitz was given independence as a rural community by the Saxon rural community order in 1838, the place was characterized by the feudal system . The estates Jahnishausen and Seerhausen practiced in 1551 proportionally the manorial over ten obsessed husband and six Inwohner from, including 9 1 / 4 hooves belonged country. In 1764 the manors were landlords of 14 possessed men, two gardeners and one cottage owner . They still managed 9 1 ⁄ 4 hooves.

Winkwitz was parish to Zscheila (today Meißener district) as early as the 16th century and is now part of the Trinitatis parish of Meißen-Zscheila. On October 1, 1939, the formerly independent rural communities Proschwitz and Rottewitz were incorporated into Winkwitz, the new community now had an area of 4.67 km². Together, these places came after the Second World War in the Soviet zone of occupation and later the GDR . The historically grown affiliation to Meißen was retained even after the territorial reform in 1952 , which Winkwitz and its districts assigned to the district of Meißen in the Dresden district. The rural life of the community was gradually oriented towards the principle of agriculture in the GDR . In 1959 street names were introduced in Winkwitz, the house numbers on the streets replaced the property numbers. The main street of the village was named "Rosa-Luxemburg-Straße", since 1994 it has been called Winkwitzer Straße.
After the German reunification , Winkwitz came to the re-established Free State of Saxony.
