Lollands sydlige kystlinie bestod tidligere af en række småøer og sandrevler eller drag.’ Drag’ betyder sandrevle og ’minde’ betyder munding. Dragsminde var tidligere Rødby Fjords udmunding og indsejling og lå dengang tættere på Rødbyhavn end slusen ligger. Dragsminde lå mellem småøerne Bredfjed og Mygfjed (i dag Myggefjed)’ fjed’ betyder bund eller grund. Betegnelsen Dragsminde stammer helt tilbage fra oldtiden. I middelalderen var Dragsminde stærkt befæstet med kanoner fra den nærliggende skanse. Med tiden tilsandede Dragsminde og man anvendte en anden indgang til fjorden svarende til der hvor slusen er i dag. Man kaldte dengang stedet det nye Dragsminde. Efter stormfloden i 1872 blev det besluttet at opføre et dige for at beskytte det sydlige Lolland. De små øer forsvandt i dag er kun deres navne tilbage. Kilde: C. C. Haugner.
UK:
Lolland's southern coastline consisted previously of a number of small islands and sand bars or drag. 'Drag' means sandbank and 'minde' means muzzle. Dragsminde was previously Rødby Fjord estuary and entrance and was then closer to Rødbyhavn than the lock is located today. Dragsminde was situated betweenthe small islands Bredfjed and Mygfjed (today Myggefjed) ‘fjed’ means bottom or ground. The name Dragsminde dates back to ancient times. In the Middle Ages, Dragsminde was heavily fortified with cannon from the nearby fort. In time, sanded Dragsminde and another entrance to the fjord was used corresponding to where the lock is today. This place was formerly called the new Dragsminde. After the flood in 1872 it was decided to build a dike to protect the south of Lolland. The small islands disappeared today, only their names excist. Source: C. C. Haugner.
