Berbisdorf is a district of Radeburg in Saxony , north of Dresden .
location
The Straßenangerdorf is located in the flat lower valley section of the Promnitz , sloping to the north , about 3 kilometers south of the center of Radeburg. Several tributaries feed the stream within the village. The center of Berbisdorf is a 500 meter long and narrow avenue.
history
The Berbisdorf located in the Promnitz valley is, like other places in the valley, probably named after a locator (Berwig?), Was located in the settlement area of the West Slavic Daleminzians and was first mentioned in documents in 1357. In the British Museum in London , a grave find from the Berbisdorfer Flur is shown, which dates from around 900 BC and indicates a very early settlement of the valley.
The focal point and center of the street tangerine village is the castle , the old complex of which is still clearly recognizable as a moated castle and dates from the Sorbs' settlement period . The building is surrounded on four sides by a ditch fed by a stream and is thus on a kind of island. It was acquired and expanded at the beginning of the 16th century by the ennobled Zeidler called Hofmann on Berbisdorf, Boden and Dittmannsdorf with the associated manor ; It was rebuilt several times by subsequent owners, most recently towards the end of the 19th century. In the keystone on a cartouche are the initials HSvZ 1670 of Chamberlain Hans Siegmund von Zeidler, who had the castle built on the walls of the moated castle in 1666. The castle had a three-winged floor plan with an inner courtyard, which was only closed and built over by Frau von dercken in 1878. In 1889, Mr. von Spörcken added a tower modeled on Moritzburg Castle, which still shapes the image of the castle today.
The last owner of the castle, Dr. Walter Große, was killed in a bomb attack on Dresden. After the war, East German expellees were quartered in the building. Due to the land reform, the manor was parceled out and the castle became a children's home in 1949 and an apprentice home in 1974. Unresolved property issues led to vacancies and decay in the period after the fall of the Wall, and the southwest corner collapsed. Speculators acquired it in 2010 while the building was exposed to wind, weather, vandalism and other looting. The current owner bought it in a property auction and started the renovation.
A small church for the villagers was added to the tower next to the castle entrance in 1841, replacing the church hall previously used in the castle building. The remaining construction costs incurred by the estate management were imposed in the following years as a kind of additional tax on the peasant farms in inheritance . The old moated castle is being considered as one of the eponymous ancestral seats of the von Berbisdorf family .
A new school, built in 1893, and the village inn are among the other important buildings in the village, which were characterized by a number of well-preserved wooden water pumps from a well workshop in Reichenberg (now Liberec in the Czech Republic). Three mills used to shape the village image and the trade in the inherited village. The watermill , the Grützmühle and the windmill at the height north of the Lößnitzgrundbahn stop all belonged to the castle's large estate, but were later demolished when the operation was no longer profitable.
As a result of the expropriation and division of the estate in the course of the land reform in the GDR after 1945, a number of new farmhouses were built on the outskirts of the village. A crypt has been standing on the cemetery outside the village since the 17th century, which used to be a burial place for the lords' families.
Berbisdorf was an independent municipality until 1994. On March 1, 1994, it merged with the neighboring communities of Bärnsdorf and Volkersdorf to form the new community of Promnitztal . However, this only existed until 1998. On January 1, 1999, Berbisdorf became part of the city of Radeburg and belongs to the Federal Republic of Germany . The village celebrated its 650th birthday in 2007.
