HistoryGrimma is of Sorbian origin and was first documented in 1065.{{citation needed|date=August 2013}} The Margraves of Meissen and the Electors of Saxony often resided at the castle in the town. Grimma was the scene of witch trials between 1494–1701. At least two women were executed as witches.[1] By 1890 the population had reached 8,957.[2] The city was affected by heavy flooding in 2013. Work had by this time started on the construction of flood barriers, but their completion had been delayed by local opposition [3] CultureGrimma has been the site of many historic structures, including a town hall dating from 1442, a famous school (the Fürstenschule) erected on the site of a former Augustinian monastery in 1550, and a school of brewing.[4] Notable people
