Alberoda is a district of the large district town of Aue-Bad Schlema in the Saxon Erzgebirge district , which has largely retained its rural character. The formerly independent village and manor was incorporated into Aue in 1929 . Alberoda is located in the northwest of Aue and southwest of the city of Lößnitz on the right bank of the Zwickauer Mulde and extends up a slope. The Alberodaer Bach flows here and directs the water from the former mill pond to the Zwickauer Mulde.
history
Local foundation
There is no written record of the oldest history of Alberoda. In the local literature it is claimed that Alberoda originally consisted of two separate places, a manor and a Waldhufendorf along the Reichsstraße . This long-distance trade route, widely used by traders, touched the area of the old Edelhof Auer castle . The final syllable "roda" in the place name indicates Thuringian settlers who probably settled here. The first documents indicate that settlement began in the 12th century. Nieder- and Oberalberoda grew together at the beginning of the 15th century .
It was not until 1403 that there were written reports from the village, which was named Albirnrodde in this document . In 1546, as it was already written in Alberoda , there were 23 possessed men , meaning peasant families who lived in the single-row Waldhufendorf .
In 1497 it was Amtsdorf in the Hartenstein office.
The place name is traced back to the personal name Albero or Albert . Alberoda was an Albert clearing settlement.
The farming village was under the rule of Schoenburg , and its residents mainly operated in agriculture .
Above Alberoda there was a Walgut , a weir system surrounded by a moat and wall, which became known as the Edelhof. The protective and defensive function related to the location of the place on the trade route between Zwickau and Bohemia . This property was named in a feudal act in 1424. It was located in a source area, with the water of which the "Edelmann-Mühle" was powered. The owners of the farms had the men of Edelhofs hand and clamping services to make or were interest and subject to forced labor . In 1806 there were 15 horse fron and 7 hand fron goods. At this time, the Alberodaers were under the jurisdiction of the County of Hartenstein and not the Edelhof manor.
As in numerous German towns, there was also witch hunt in Alberoda . Catharina Häußler got into a witch trial in 1568 and was punished with expulsion from the country.
Development from the 17th century
After fires in the years 1617 and 1859 on the grounds of the manor and the subsequent reconstruction work on the manor house, residential use by a stocking knitter family , the conversion to a TBC sanatorium in the 1940s and use by an LPG between 1952 and 1987, this became historic mill building placed under monument protection. A new owner had the “Edelhof” mill gradually restored from 1988 and expanded into a restaurant with living rooms. On the defensive-looking quarry stone ground floor there is a room with a groin vault. The seat niche portal in the south-facing central building has a profiled round arch and a coat of arms, which was inserted after the reconstruction in 1617, in the apex. The upper floor consists partly of timber framing that was lumbered between 1943 and 1945 . It is finished with a hipped roof. The fortifications with ramparts and moats can still be seen and were provided with a drawbridge until 1881.
Boom from the end of the 19th century
At the end of the 19th century, rapid industrialization in Aue also led to families moving to Alberoda. It was necessary to build a school, a fire brigade and an office building. The school opened in 1898. The fire brigade and office soon followed. In 1927 the place received its first bus connection to Aue. On August 1, 1929, the residents celebrated the incorporation into Aue. This ended the independence of the rural settlement, which had lasted around 750 years.
After the Second World War an increased use of the area by the Wismut began. Numerous facilities and buildings were built, including shaft 276. On November 15, 1950, residents laid the foundation stone for their first church. The inauguration was celebrated on October 28, 1951.
The still existing farms merged in the 1960s in the LPG Alberoda. In 1967 the farmers started up a pig fattening facility with 1,300 fattening places and produced around 350 tons of meat products per year.
After the fall of the Wall , the farms were reprivatised. Some farmers are cultivating their old fields again, an ostrich farm was established and some businesses and accommodation facilities gained a foothold. The newly created industrial park plays a major role in the economic development of Alberoda and thus Aues.
In the 21st century
The census in May 2011 showed 1060 inhabitants for the district of Alberoda, the population density was 600 people per square kilometer.
After several attempts to enlarge the urban area of Aue with the ultimate goal of a large city Silberberg , Alberoda became one of four official districts of the large district town of Aue-Bad Schlema on January 1, 2019 . Most of the residents run small farms for self-sufficiency or are involved in tourism. The industrial park is flourishing and growing steadily.
