Territorial Affiliation

The region around Schmiedefeld , which is part of the southern dominion of the Counts of Orlamünde , was taken over by the Wettins from 1426 , who set up the Graefenthal office at Wespenstein Castle . From 1826 to 1920 Schmiedefeld belonged to Sachsen-Meiningen , from 1868 to the district of Saalfeld . The state of Thuringia was founded in 1920 and then subdivided into districts, whereby the place came to the district of Saalfeld , this existed until 1952. With the formation of the GDR districts and districts in the same year, the area came to the district of Neuhaus in the Suhl district .

On January 1, 2019, Bock and Teich came to the city of Neuhaus am Rennweg as part of the incorporation of Lichte and thus moved from the Saalfeld-Rudolstadt district to the Sonneberg district.

Local history

War memorial in pond

The settlement of the 7 km long Piesau valley was promoted by early modern mining. Copper ore was mined, melted and processed into semi-finished products in hammer mills in the valley. Relics of this mining activity, which at times extended to the entire Piesau Valley, can still be found in the corridor of the village. In the middle of the 19th century, the historian Georg Brückner describes the situation around Graefenthal and Wallendorf in the second volume of his "Landeskunde des Herzogthums Meinigen".

The upper trestle, the lower trestle and the pond
  • These three places, which are basically the Piesau between the confluence of the Kolmbach and Wallendorf and close to each other, have formed a political municipality since 1844. Formerly parish, trained and buried in Schmiedefeld, since 1734 in Wallendorf. Until recently they were under the rule of Wallendorf (jurisdiction, ..., merrymaking and mill compulsion). The entire community has 30 residential and three work houses, 30 families, 182 residents, 94 head of cattle (53 cattle, 25 goats, 10 pigs).
  • The upper Bock (formerly also "Bockhammer") has (1849) 3 houses, 9 families, ... The smelting plant (Blaufeuer) that was located there in 1842 went down. A large heap here bears witness to the operation of an earlier copper (mine) works in the interior of the mountain adjoining here to the north. ... The entrances have been buried, and the considerable water art has also died. One differentiates (in the corridor) the large, small and upper Kupferthal.
  • The lower bock and the pond, two groups of houses, contain (1849) 17 residential houses, a work house, 22 families, 128 souls and 78 head of cattle ...
  • The lower goat (lies) just below the upper one; here a rod hammer with a furnace, a private property.
  • Pond (formerly "Stauchenhammer", then "Wüster Teich"), single houses, ..., at the influence of the Kolmbach in the Piesau, on the Kleeberg ... Formerly above the pond there was a blue color mill and a farm. There are unused peat stores in the Kolmbach valley.

The Lichte (Thuringia) Ost station on the outskirts of Bock was put into operation on January 16, 1899 under the name Bock-Wallendorf as the new terminus of the Probstzella – Taubenbach railway . This station was also important for the increasing freight transport of the later district town of Neuhaus am Rennweg. With the completion of the Probstzella – Neuhaus am Rennweg railway line in 1913, from 1913 with continuation to Lauscha , the terminus station became a through station .
