Brüx is a district of the Upper Franconian town of Neustadt bei Coburg in the Coburg district .

location

Brüx is located around twelve kilometers northwest of Coburg on a small plateau, around 110 meters above the valley of the Itz in the west and the Röden in the east and south. Neighboring places on the plateau are Rüttmannsdorf , Höhn and Weimersdorf . The four villages in the Coburg region are also known as the mountain villages. A community road leads to Höhn.

history

Brüx was first mentioned in a document in 1149. In the, the Würzburg Bishop Siegfried von Truhendingen confirmed that the newly founded Mönchröden Monastery had been given the village with all rights by Hermann Sterker , Burgrave of Meißen and his brother, Count Sterker. A stick dam over a marsh area in the "Müß" corridor gave Brüx its place name. The dam was part of an old trade route that led from Coburg via Rüttmannsdorf , Brüx andschichtshöhn to Steinheid and on to Erfurt.

In 1618, before the Thirty Years' War , there were ten able-bodied men in the team register. In 1636 the village was desolate, but recovered within about ten years.

Belonging to Meeder church in the Middle Ages , Brüx was looked after by the Neustadt parish from 1529. In 1906 a cemetery was set up on the road to Brüx and the mountain church was consecrated there in 1910. In 1912 the parish was re- pared to Mönchröden .

The Brüx children initially went to school in Neustadt, about five kilometers away. From 1743 the four mountain villages had a preceptor who alternately taught in one of the farmhouses and had board and lodging there. From 1842 there was a school in the Höhner Forsthaus. On September 13, 1902, a new school building was inaugurated in Höhn. In 1969 the school was closed and lessons were first held in the Mönchröden-Einberg school association, since 1977 in Neustadt.

In a referendum on November 30, 1919, four citizens of Brüx voted for the Free State of Coburg to join the Thuringian state and 19 against. From July 1, 1920, Brüx also belonged to the Free State of Bavaria .

Five soldiers from Brüx lost their lives in the First World War and eight in the Second World War. Plaques in the mountain church commemorate them. In the Reichstag election of March 5, 1933 , the NSDAP received all 44 votes cast in Brüx.

On July 1, 1968, the four towns of Brüx, Höhn, Rüttmannsdorf and Weimersdorf merged to form the new Bergdorf community, which was dissolved on May 1, 1978 and incorporated into the town of Neustadt bei Coburg . Since then, Brüx has been part of Neustadt.

In 1948 there were ten residential buildings in Brüx, and in 1987 there were eight more.

The drinking water supply used to be through house wells. From 1974 the properties were connected to the drinking water network of Stadtwerke Neustadt. From 1924 the electricity supplier was the Coburg overland plant . In 1997 Stadtwerke Neustadt took over the power supply.
