The first mention of a castle as the center of an administrative district dates back to 965/1004, although the document from 965 is considered a suspected forgery. Trebitz was part of a chain of 19 castle wards on the middle Elbe, with whose help the East Elbian colonization was to be secured under Emperor Otto I (912-973). Until 1290, the castle and office of Trebitz belonged to the County of Brehna. After the local counts died out, Trebitz came to Electorate of Saxony. In 1290, Rudolf I of Saxony was enfeoffed with the County of Brehna by King Rudolf I of Habsburg, his grandfather. This created a contiguous territory. Wittenberg, now centrally located, developed into the capital of the Duchy of Saxony, which now stretches from Fläming to Liebenwerda.
