Bärhaus is a small settlement belonging to Lauchhammer-Süd (formerly: Dolsthaida) on the Black Elster , about eight kilometers from Kroppen and Ruhland .

The Bärhaus settlement, which is also known as "Kroppener Werder" , "Wohland" or "Bärhäuser" , includes the Bärwald estate, which used to belong to the Kroppen estate and is now incorporated into Dolsthaida, as well as the Bärhaus colony, which is part of the community Kroppen forms and is also to be incorporated into Dolsthaida in the foreseeable future.

Bärhaus consists of nine homesteads with around 10 hectares (around 40 acres) of fields and meadows. The whole of Werder was about 125 hectares (500 acres) and consisted mostly of swampy quarry and oak forest areas .

history

In 1695 the first two houses were built and the first settler was called "Bär", whose name also coined the later settlement name. With the Elster regulation, which began on May 10, 1852, the breaks became accessible. A Count von Bohlen, who bought Werder, used this opportunity to cut down the oak forest and squander it at ridiculous prices. His successor, Schurig, began in 1859 with great difficulty and high price to clear the huge sticks and gradually make the land arable. In 1864 he built the first large barn and the farm building of the Bärwald estate. In 1869 the tavern was sold to Gottfried Hensel from Frauendorf . Around the 1870s, the former mayor of Görlitz , Richtsteig, acquired the town of Kroppen together with the Bärhaus settlement. Bärhaus owes the establishment of the Vorwerk to the property Richtsteig , which in 1883 passed into the possession of the Rittmeister von Loesch at Castle Cammerswaldau in the district of Schönau (today: Komarno ). Before the war he sold it to the official director Möller von Lauchhammer-Riesa.
