history
In 1683, the heirs of Bergvogts Salomon Brunn from Sangerhausen proposed to Elector Johann Georg III. von Sachsen negotiates the purchase of the Witzleben mines in Wendelstein . Brunn's heirs had previously been enfeoffed with these mines by Philipp Heinrich von Witzleben auf Wendelstein.
The elector passed the proposal on to the mining authority in the Electorate of Saxony, Freiberg . From there the new Bergvogt von Sangerhausen received the request to submit a report with special explanations in Freiberg. On the basis of this report, a delegation from the Upper Mining Office of Electoral Saxony visited the place below the Wendelstein near Bottendorf on June 10, 1683 with the involvement of the Sangerhäuser Bergvogt and Maria Brunn. Since the mines were in the area of the then Duchy of Saxony-Weißenfels , the Duke there took over the Bottendorfer mines, which, however, were not very profitable. On October 17, 1703, Duke Johann Georg von Sachsen-Weißenfels sold the hereditary property over the mines and smelting works located in the offices of Sangerhausen and Wendelstein to the Kammer- und Bergrat Dr. Samuel Friedrich Rappold from Schwemsal and the businessman Johann Wilhelm Dünckler from Leipzig .
Already on April 9, 1704, the widow of Hans Haubold von Einsiedels , Anna Sophia von Einsiedel , née Rumohr, bought those mining and steel works from Rappold and Dünckler and had their acquisition confirmed by a loan letter from Duke Johann von Sachsen-Weißenfels.
On May 21, 1732, Duke Christian von Sachsen-Weißenfels transferred half of the shares of Anna Sophia, who died in 1725, and Cay Rudolph Haubold von Einsiedel, who died in 1730, to Johann George and Detlev Heinrich von Einsiedel. After Detlev Heinrich von Einsiedel died on March 5, 1746, the Bergregal was inherited and peculiarly passed on to Court Marshal Count Johann George von Einsiedel.
On September 13, 1749, Elector Friedrich August II of Saxony confirmed the inheritance of the mining and smelting works in the offices of Sangerhausen and Wendelstein, which had already taken place during the time of the principality of Saxony-Weißenfels, especially for his court marshal.
The Hofmarschall von Einsiedel and his heirs were given the opportunity to maintain their own mining office in Bottendorf, which administered higher and inheritance courts in mining and mining matters. The union mines' office was under the supervision of the Bergvogtei Thuringia with all things that affected sovereign interests .
After the Congress of Vienna and the annexation to the Kingdom of Prussia in 1815, the area of the Bergvogtei Thuringia was initially enlarged. After its administration was linked to the Sangerhausen Justice Office for a short time , the Bergvogtei Thuringia was subordinated to the Oberbergamt Halle in December 1815 and moved to Halle in 1816, but was finally dissolved with effect from January 1, 1827. By order of the upper mining office of March 5, 1827, the mining and steel works near Bottendorf were directly subordinated to the upper mining office in Halle. At the latest with the abolition of patrimonial jurisdiction in Prussia in 1849, the Bottendorf Mining Authority was finally abolished.
