history

The first documentary mention is in 1220 in connection with the transfer of the Lampertswalde church and its branch church Blochwitz to the Kreuzkloster near Meißen .

Blochwitz was incorporated into Weißig am Raschütz on March 1, 1994 . It has been part of the Lampertswalde community since January 1st, 2012.

Place name

Spellings in documentary evidence are Blochgewitz (1220), Plochewicz (1398), Blochwitz (1399) .

The place name could probably be derived from the Sorbian word Ploche (dt. Flea ). It would be interpreted as "a place full of fleas".

The name can also be interpreted as a Slavic patronymic . It is formed by adding a suffix to the name of the progenitor. This would correspond to adding a West Slavic, more precisely Polish suffix in the form - (o) wicz , - (e) wicz and sometimes -icz , to the ancestral name Bloch . It is used for the male descendants. So it should also mean "(male) descendants of Bloch". However, Bloch as a name has many meanings depending on the author. For example, it can be interpreted as an abbreviation of the first name Blogomil , i.e. H. the blessed and happy , and the inhabitants of the village would therefore be the "descendants of the blessed and happy".
