Throughwehna is a street village in terms of settlement form. The name Throughwehna, which lies in the valley of the Schleifbach, originates from the Slavic word Droga and means valley. Until 1815, the village belonged to the Electoral Saxon district of Düben. Due to the decisions of the Congress of Vienna, it became part of Prussia and was assigned in 1816 to the Bitterfeld district in the Merseburg administrative district of the Province of Saxony, to which it belonged until 1944. During the administrative reform in the GDR in 1952, Throughwehna was assigned to the Eilenburg district, and from 1994 to the Delitzsch district. The village was incorporated into Kossa in 1974. Since 2007, Throughwehna has been a district of the municipality of Laußig.
