history
The place name is of Old Sorbian origin. Its original name was probably "Borantin" or "Bořetin", which means "possession of Boranta" or "possession of Bořeta". The place name is thus derived from the first name of a Slavic locator . The place name (Groß-) Borthen was first mentioned in 1286 as "Borrenthin maior". In 1378 a distinction was made between “Baratin maior” and “Boratin minor”, in 1404 between “zen grandin boretin” and “zen few boretin”. In the following 150 years, diverse spellings were used, including "Grossenboretin in der Donyschen pflege", "das Cleyne Borten", "Borttin", "Portten" and "Großer Bortha". It was not until the late 19th century that the official spelling “Großborthen” and “Kleinborthen” was used.
The manorial rule over Borthen and the surrounding towns was connected with the possession of the manor in Kleinborthen, which was mentioned in 1552 as an old script. In the early 15th century, Borthen belonged to the von Carlowitz family . In the middle of the 16th century, Hans Christoph von Bernstein had the Old Castle built as a manor on the estate, and the New Castle was built next door around 1700. In the 17th and 18th centuries, the manor was subordinate to the lords of Schönberg , von Neitschütz and the barons of Meusebach . It was owned by the Counts of Flemming until the early 19th century , after which it belonged to the Counts of Wallwitz until 1945.
Around the manor in Kleinborthen a manor settlement with housekeeping developed . Various manor blocks belonged to the manor on Borthener Flur. Kleinborthen still formed a community with the immediately neighboring Burgstädtel in the 16th century. Großborthen, on the other hand, was a round building with a block corridor . Administrative sovereignty over both places had been the responsibility of the Pirna Office since the 16th century , and then the Pirna Court Office in 1856. On the basis of the rural community order of 1838 , Groß- and Kleinborthen formed a joint rural community , which in 1874 was part of the Pirna administration .
The municipality of Borthen was divided into the independent municipalities of Großborthen and Kleinborthen in 1930, but this was reversed in 1936. On July 1, 1950, the neighboring town of Burgstädtel was incorporated into the municipality of Borthen. During a municipal reform in the GDR , Borthen was assigned to the Freital district in 1952. During the GDR era, the Borthener Flur, the district of Neuborthen, was built in the south.
In 1952 the " LPG Vorwärts Borthen" was founded. Its members began growing orchards in 1957. In the following years Borthen grew into a center of fruit growing in Saxony. Since 1975 the "Borthen Flower Festival" has taken place every year in and around Borthen. After the state-owned fruit production Borthen, which was founded in 1978, was liquidated as a result of the fall of the Wall , several private fruit-growing operations were established. They have come together to form the “Borthener Obst producer group” based in Röhrsdorf.
On January 1, 1993, the municipality of Borthen merged with the municipalities of Gorknitz and Röhrsdorf from the Pirna district. As part of the new municipality of Röhrsdorf, Borthen left the Freital district and came to the Pirna district , which was incorporated into the Saxon Switzerland district during the district reform on August 1, 1994 . As part of the municipality of Röhrsdorf, Borthen was incorporated into the town of Dohna on January 1, 1999, which since August 1, 2008 has belonged to the newly formed district of Saxon Switzerland-Eastern Ore Mountains.
