The village bordered on the Annaburg Heath and the villages of Zwiesigko, Schöneicho, Kähnitzsch, Hohndorf and Plossig.

Lebien was once a branch of Axien and only later got its own church.

From 1815 to 1944, Lebien was part of the Prussian Province of Saxony and from 1944 to 1945 of the Province of Halle-Merseburg.
