history

The exact date of origin of Berthelsdorf is not known, but it was mentioned in documents with Christiansdorf, in the place of which the city of Freiberg was founded in 1186 . Berthelsdorf is therefore older than Freiberg. Since the place is mentioned when the Altzella Monastery was founded in 1162 by Margrave Otto von Meißen , the year the Waldhufendorf Berthelsdorf was founded as 1163. The place was mentioned in 1183 as "Bertoldesdorph". The name probably goes back to a locator called "Berchtold", who directed the settlement between 1156, when Margrave Otto took office, and 1183.

1348 Berthelsdorf was fief of Reinhard and Dietrich of Honsberg . After 1548 the place was under the rule of the council to Freiberg. Until 1856, Berthelsdorf was part of the Electoral Saxon or Royal Saxon district office of Freiberg . Between 1515 and 1560 the "hut pond" was built, which was called "artificial pond" after its completion. The entire aqueduct and the pond were destroyed in the Thirty Years War .

From 1856 Berthelsdorf belonged to the fire court office and from 1875 to the Freiberg district administration . With the opening of the Freiberg - Lichtenberg / Erzgeb section. of the railway line from Nossen to the Bohemian Moldau received Berthelsdorf / Erzgeb. on July 8, 1875 rail connection. The Berthelsdorf (Erzgeb) station became a transfer station with the opening of the branch lines to Großhartmannsdorf and Langenau via Brand-Erbisdorf in 1890. Already in 1888 there was a siding from the train station to the paper factory in Weißenborn / Erzgeb. placed.

In 1922, the residents of Neu-Berthelsdorf submitted an application for incorporation into Weißenborn / Erzgeb., Which was unsuccessful. It was not until 1955 that Neu-Berthelsdorf was reclassified to Weißenborn / Erzgeb. In 1936 the municipal representatives of Berthelsdorf / Erzgeb advised. and Weißenborn / Erzgeb. about amalgamation of the two places, which was not approved. The senior teacher Willibald King wrote in 1956, "Oh you meant Berthelsdorf" song.

With the second district reform in the GDR came Berthelsdorf / Erzgeb. in 1952 to the Brand-Erbisdorf district in the Chemnitz district (renamed the Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ), which was continued in 1990 as the Saxon Brand-Erbisdorf district and was merged in the Freiberg district in 1994 . On January 1st, 1994 Berthelsdorf / Erzgeb. to Weißenborn / Erzgeb. incorporated. After the end of travel on the branch lines to Langenau and Großhartmannsdorf via Brand-Erbisdorf in 1998, the Berthelsdorf (Erzgeb) station lost its importance as a railway junction. After the modernization and privatization of the Freiberg – Holzhau section of the Nossen – Moldau railway line, the “Berthelsdorf (Erzeb.) Ort” stop was set up in 2000.
