history

Local history

Part from the cabinet card of Isaak Jacob von Petri with Beyern ( Beiern ) around 1762

The oldest known mention of Beyern comes from the year 1419 (earlier spellings: 1419 Beygn, 1423 Beygern, 1495 Beiern ).

Until 1815 the village of Beyern was the southeasternmost place of the office of Annaburg . As early as the 16th century, the place had its own pastor. In 1550 there were 25 possessed men in Beyern , including 19 tie-ins who were directly subordinate to the Lochau office . At that time (Germanic / pagan) Landgeding, Landgauding (assembly / court) were held in Beyern . The venue was presumably in the holy place of today's church, where a "proud" linden or oak stood, surrounded by further linden or oak.

On August 31, 1580, in Freiberg, the loan was made over the gold soap Sanct Moises . The soaps, which had a width of 500 laughs and a length of 1000 laughs, were already on a sand mountain on the Beyerian border in the area of ​​the neighboring office of Schlieben . The five trades included the city of Freiberg and the miner Martin Planer .

There was a post mill in the town of Beyern . It was moved to the village of Drasdo in 1723 .

The local corridor bordered with the villages of Fermerswalde , Graefendorf , Großrössen , Schmerkendorf , Kölsa and the Annaburger Heide .

Deserts Presitz and Richental

The Wüstungen Presitz (former spelling: Prestewitz, Presicz, Bresewitz ) & Reichenthal (former spelling: Richental ) also belonged to Beyern. Presumably these places on the border area of ​​the Mark Brandenburg became desolate, while Ludwig the Elder Margrave of the Mark Brandenburg (1323-1351) was.
