Historically, it is known for the Zeithain Encampment , which was a huge agglomeration of tents and troops, involving the whole 27,000-men-strong army of August the Strong. This event took place from 1 to 26 June 1730.
During World War II a large prisoner-of-war camp, Stalag IV-B/H, was located in Zeithain.
A memorial and museum commemorate it.
