Burgstädtel is about five kilometers northwest of the old town of Dohna on the city limits to Dresden. It is located on a plateau orographically to the right above the Lockwitzgrund on the southern edge of the Elbe valley . The Borthener Grund, through which a small stream flows, leads from Borthen to the Lockwitzgrund. Most of the corridors around Burgstädtel belong to the Borthen fruit-growing area . About a kilometer north of Burgstädtel is the Lockwitztalbrücke of the federal highway 17 ; this is also where the city limits run between Dohna and Dresden .

Neighboring places

Adjacent districts of Dohna are Röhrsdorf in the southeast and Borthen in the east; Kleinborthen is only 500 meters from Burgstädtel. Neighboring north to west are the Kreischa districts of Sobrigau , Babisnau and Bärenklause . The next town in a southerly direction, but separated from the Burgstädtel district by Borthener Flur, is Gombsen .

Type of settlement

The center of Burgstädtel is the square "Am Rundling ", the name of which refers to the original form of settlement of the village - a well-preserved Slavic Rundling (Rundplatzdorf). Around the round, trough-shaped village square, farmsteads and cottages are grouped in a compact arrangement with the gable side facing the open space. There is a tree-lined fire-fighting pond on the northern part of the square.

Burgstädteler Linde

To the east, the location continues along the Zur Linde street . This street name in turn refers to the Burgstädteler linden tree, also called crown linden tree in older literature. This 500-year-old summer linden tree ( Tilia platyphyllos ) with an enormous trunk and a few still vital branches stands 300 meters west of the Rundling, is protected as a natural monument and is a landmark of Burgstädtel. The imposing deciduous tree is located on an artificial castle wall of the Slavs that is over 1000 years old. The complex was built in the 10th century based on archaeological finds. The Kreischa basin was at that time purely Slavic. The section wall separates a terrain spur over a bend in the Lockwitzbach from the hinterland. The spur length on the crown of the residual wall is around 150 meters, with the artificial wall only being 20 meters. The Burgstädteler Linde is visible from afar due to its exposed location and a vantage point, which offers a view over the Lockwitztal with the Hummelmühle and the Talenge on the Blauberg as well as over the Kreischa basin with the mountain ranges, the Wilisch, the Hermsdorfer Höhe and the Quohrener Kipse.

To the south of the Burgstädteler Linde there is a pear orchard meadow, which is part of the area natural monument . The biotope with 160 orchard trees was created by the Landscape Management Association Sächsische Schweiz-Osterzgebirge e. V. was restored in the years 2011 to 2014 through biotope maintenance measures.

South of Burgstädtel is another natural monument, the stone linden tree.

history

Burgstädtel on a map from the 19th century

The place name, which comes from German , is composed of the Middle High German words burc (for castle ) and Stadel (for location), meaning settlement at / near the location of a castle or the location of a castle .

The settlement of the place took place in connection with a Slavic rampart in the area of ​​the lookout point at the Burgstädtler linden tree. The presence of a fortification is proven by the find of Slavic and early German fragments. The place name was first mentioned in 1378 as Borgstadel. In the centuries that followed, numerous different spellings were in use, including Borckstadel and Burgkstädtel . To distinguish it from Burgstädtel b. Dresden was called the place in 1875 Burgstädtel b. Pirna . At times the place was also called Kleinborthen .

Originally, Burgstädtel formed a community with the immediately neighboring Kleinborthen, for example in 1378 and 1547. The various owners of the Borthen manor exercised the basic rule over Burgstädtel . Administration 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 code of 1838 , Burgstädtel gained independence as a rural community , which in 1875 became part of the Pirna administration and in 1900 had a 67-hectare block corridor. On July 1, 1950, the municipality of Burgstädtel was incorporated into Borthen and with this in 1952 it was added to the Freital district. As part of Borthen, Burgstädtel came to Röhrsdorf on January 1, 1993 and finally to Dohna on January 1, 1999.
