Niedersedlitz is a district of Dresden in the districts of Prohlis and a small part of Leuben .

history

Niedersedlitz was first mentioned in 1350 as Sedelicz (sedlica = settlement). The addition "Nieder-" was added later in order to better distinguish the village from the places Kleinsedlitz and Großsedlitz (with the baroque garden ) located a few kilometers up the Elbe near Pirna . At that time Niedersedlitz belonged to the Dohna burgraves . The old village center was a lane-like widened circular structure. In the Thirty Years War and the Battle of Dresden in 1813, Niedersedlitz was almost completely destroyed. Until then it was an insignificant farming village. From 1848 industrialization took place along the Saxon-Bohemian Railway to Pirna, where Niedersedlitz also had a train station . With the construction of the freight yard in 1871, a change in meaning took place. Factories were built along the railway line, for example Otto Kauffmann's chemical factory in 1871 (partly on the Großluga district , which belonged to Niedersedlitz from 1922 ), which later under his son of the same name mainly through its ceramic products (see edging of the platform stairs in Dresden station -Neustadt), the Malzfabrik founded in 1873 by the Pick brothers and the Sachsenwerk founded in 1903 , which emerged from the Kummerwerke, founded in 1888, operating as an AG since 1894 and bankrupted in 1901, that only began with the new construction site on Pirnaer Landstrasse since It belonged to Leuben in the 1970s , but was - incorrectly - attributed to it decades earlier.

In 1872 Niedersedlitz received an imperial mail expedition, initially III. Class, in 1897 it was converted into a second class post office, before it was finally raised to first class post office in 1902 and moved to today's post office.

A school was founded in 1875 and the school building opened in 1876. However, this soon turned out to be too small, so that a new building was inaugurated in 1888, which had to be expanded several times by 1910 (including the construction of the gym in 1901).

On March 31, 1894, the volunteer fire brigade , which still exists today, was founded. To secure the water supply, Niedersedlitz formed a waterworks association with the communities of Lockwitz and Leuben in 1900 .

This rapid development gave rise to the desire for an own town hall . One year after the foundation stone was laid, the inauguration took place on July 10, 1902. The architect was Gustav Hänichen , who also built the Leuben town hall and the Radebeul town hall .

Further industrial settlements that took place around 1900 (e.g. colored and luxury paper factory Oswald Enterlein, Rauhkardenhandlung FW Jäger and the art institute for graphic products and letterpress printing Krey and Sommerlad) made it necessary to build road underpasses for the previously ground-level railway, and to expand the railway line to four tracks to build a new freight yard, which was opened at the beginning of 1906. Also in 1906 the trams to Kleinzschachwitz and Kreischa ( Lockwitztalbahn ) were put into operation, after the tram connection to Laubegast had already been made in 1899 via the Dresden suburban railway .

Since 1911 there was a branch of the Allgemeine Deutsche Credit-Anstalt, founded in Leipzig in 1856 .

By the First World War , the residential streets between the old village and the railway were built, lined with trees, in an open construction with front and house gardens. Housing cooperative settlements in open fields also ensured increased living space. 1922 Niedersedlitz was the incorporation of Luga expanded. It was not incorporated into Dresden until July 1, 1950 with its 8,000 inhabitants. In 1957, today's Badminton Club 57 Niedersedlitz was founded as a badminton section of the BSG Chemie Niedersedlitz.

In the 1980s, the so-called “Sterngebiet” new building complex (ten-storey residential buildings in the GDR-typical panel construction style , arranged in a Y-shape) was built on Windmühlenstraße (access to the S 172 ). In the course of the dismantling measures, the first of the five star houses was demolished again in autumn 2005. These measures were completed with the demolition of the last star in autumn 2011.

Since autumn 2005, Niedersedlitz can be reached via the Prohlis junction  between Kauscha and Goppeln as well as via the Heidenau junction  in Lockwitz from the Autobahn 17 .
