Fürstlich Drehna wurde erstmals urkundlich am 3. August 1301 erwähnt. Während seiner jarhundertelangen Geschichte gab es folgende Ortsnamen:
The location was designed as follows:
The place was knightly seat of the lineage of Drauschwitz, Maltitz and Minckwitz (1521 – 1697). Since 1663 a seat of the town – so Drehna was one of the younger ones in the Niederlausitz. Gradually, the village developed into a market spot, but remained an administrative municipality.
Prince Drehna received a special boost from the last three families, Count zu Promnitz (1697 – 1793), Count zu Lynar (1793 – 1877), who was elevated to the princely state in 1807, hence also the place name Fürstlich Drehna (around 1860) and a rich one Shipowner and merchant from Bremen, Christian Heinrich Wätjen.
In the village you will find the historical guesthouse „Zum Hirsch“ with a historical theater in the shape of a ship’s hull and the Schlossbrauerei Fürstlich Drehna, which has existed since 1745.
Prince Drehna was renamed Drehna on 1 July 1950. The name was renamed to ‚Fürstlich Drehna‘ on 1 January 1991.
