History

It was first mentioned in 1353. The town was at various times ruled by Bohemian, Hungarian, Saxon and monarchs, before it was became part of Prussia in 1815. The coat of arms contains the Czech Lion. From 1815 to 1947, Drebkau was part of the Province of Brandenburg.

During World War II, two forced labour subcamps of the Nazi prison for women in Cottbus were located in the present-day districts of Auras (Huraz) and Schorbus (Skjarbošc), respectively.

After the war, Drebkau was incorporated into the State of Brandenburg from 1947 to 1952 and the Bezirk Cottbus of East Germany from 1952 to 1990. Since 1990, Drebkau has been part of Brandenburg.
