History

A Catholic chapel was built by 1342.[1] As of 1885, the village had a population of 451, and there was a Sorbian Lutheran school.[1]

Uhyst was renamed Spreefurt during the Nazi era, and regained its original name in 1947.[2]

The forester and poet Gottfried Unterdörfer lived and worked here from 1950 until his death in 1990.
