history
Interpretation and development of the place name
The name Buchwalde is derived from the Sorbian word for beech buk . In 1446 the village was mentioned for the first time under the name Buchwald . Via Buchwalt (1474), the name developed into what is known today as Buchwalde (first mentioned in 1509).
timeline
Buchwalde was created as an elongated street village on a trade route that ran through the place from north to south. Buchwalde belonged to the Senftenberg office . In the surrounding arms of the Black Elster , the residents of Buchwald went fishing. They were allowed to sell this income in neighboring Senftenberg. Until 1563 the fisherman who supervised the fishing of the Senftenberg office lived in Buchwalde. The Buchwalder were called in for service work; they had to cut kitchen wood, turn grain on the castle floor, perform security duties during wartime and take part in hunted pigs, wolves and rabbits. Together with the residents of Jüttendorf , they had to cultivate the office's vineyards. The mill book of the Senftenberger Amtsmühle recorded 1609 173 people in Buchwalde. Until the middle of the 19th century, Buchwalde was surrounded by swampy terrain. The magpie regularly flooded the meadows. In the course of the separation from 1850 to 1860, the swampy terrain was converted into arable land.
Since the water supply in southern Lower Lusatia deteriorated as a result of the many opencast mining outcrops , a waterworks was built in Buchwalde from summer 1912 to supply the Lower Lusatia lignite area with drinking water. The airfield in Buchwalde was excavated by the Niemtsch opencast mine , which was opened in 1940 . On July 1, 1950, the place was incorporated into Senftenberg. In 1994 the first groundbreaking took place for the expansion of the residential estate in Buchwalde.
On Buchwalder Strasse in the old village center there is a memorial for those who died in the First World War . An eagle that crowned it was lost.
