NN on a plateau sloping to the east into the valley of the Zwickauer Mulde, southeast of the center of Zschorlau . The connecting road to Bockau leads through the village . Not far from the village is the so-called pulpit ( 579 m above sea level ), from which a view of the Muldental and Auersberg is possible.
According to the natural space map of Saxony , the place is in the mesogeochore "Auer valley basin with ridge" and belongs to the microgeochore "Albernauer Steinberg-ridge" and "Bockauer Mulde valley".
history
Albernau was probably settled by Franconian settlers in the late medieval period when the primeval forest covering the Ore Mountains was opened up . The first mention of the place dates back to 1524, then Albernau was the name of a secluded on a ridge of Zschorlau free good (the court was by all requirements of the Barony of Schwarzenberg exempt). The name Albernau probably comes from the Wendish name for a poplar species, the "Albern" and its location, a mountain meadow drawn from the 733 m high Steinberg to the Zwickauer Mulde.
Between 1524 and 1533 a development towards the village took place through the settlement of the first hoof farmers and their servants. The property was rebuilt in 1555 after the plague years by Hans von Klintzschkau and had a grinding mill on the Tiefenbach or Dorfbach. The looting by the imperial troops under General Holk did not leave Albernau without a trace and brought hunger, suffering and poverty with it. During the Seven Years' War , the neighboring parish of Zschorlau, to which Albernau was already assigned at that time, was looted by the Swedes and the inhabitants fled to Albernau. The largest estate in the village was now owned by the Gottlob Heinrich von Lindenau family and his heirs. A hand combing shop was located there later, but it burned down in 1856 and was subsequently relocated to Schedewitz .
Until 1832 Albernau was part of the Electoral Saxon or Royal Saxon district office of Schwarzenberg . After its division, the place belonged to the Eibenstock office between 1832 and 1856 . From 1856 the place belonged to the Schneeberg court office and from 1875 to the Schwarzenberg administration , which was renamed the Aue district in 1947.
In 1947 the demolition of the property took place on the orders of the Soviet headquarters. As a result of the second district reform in the GDR in 1952, Albernau became part of the Aue district in the Chemnitz district (renamed the Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ), which was continued as the Saxon "Aue district" from 1990 and was added to the Aue-Schwarzenberg district in 1994 .
The Schindler blue color factory founded by Erasmus Schindler in 1649 , located directly on the Zwickauer Mulde , belongs to Albernau . Here, too, a workers' settlement developed after a mansion was built. After the production of cobalt blue was discontinued, the company switched to synthesized ultramarine blue. As the “Ultramarine Factory Schindlerswerk” in the “Schneeberg GmbH”, it is the world's oldest paint factory that is still producing. It is linked to a long tradition of cobalt blue production and the commercial manufacture of color pigments. The Schindlerswerk is a selected site for the proposed candidacy for the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Ore Mountains Mining Region .
Also in the valley of the Zwickauer Mulde is one of Saxony's oldest inns, the reopened "Rechenhaus", built in 1556 as a control house for the military guard at the junction of the raft ditch . Catering has been given since 1694.
On January 1, 1998 Albernau was incorporated into Zschorlau, and in 1999 the elementary school (formerly Polytechnische Oberschule ) was closed. The current mayor is Lothar Süß. Since 2008 the place belongs to the Erzgebirge district.
In summer 2008 the 50th anniversary of the big school and home festival of 1958 was celebrated.
