The first written mention of Louka u Litvínova is from 1289, when it was owned by the Lords of Rýzmburk, a branch of the Hrabišic family. They sold the village to Margrave William I in 1398 and until the end of the Hussite Wars, the area belonged to Saxony. After that, the village was granted to various nobles as a fief.[2]
In the 17th century, Louka u Litvínova was owned by the Waldstein family. It was an agricultural village until the discovery of lignite and general industrialization of the region.[2]
