history

Like the neighboring Albernau , the place developed from a property that was mentioned in a document as early as 1395 as Burgoldisgrün in the Schwarzenberg rule . This building was very striking because it had a turret with a bell and clock until 1920.

Between 1517 and 1524 Asmus Schürer, Caspar Schürer and Balthasar glasses from glassmaker families closed three free yards in Burkhardtsgrün and the associated hunting and fishing rights. Asmus son Christoph Schürer went to Albernau to build a new glassworks there. The glassworks in Burkhardtsgrün is first documented in 1533. It was connected to Balthasar Schürer's Freihof and seems to have existed before. It was no longer producing as early as 1550. The Schürer and Gläser families are said to have emigrated to Bischofsgrün in the Fichtel Mountains.

The village settlement, whose inhabitants lived with forest, soap work, mining, sewing and embroidery, was formed around the free estates, the glassworks and the newly built hunting lodge in the middle of the 16th century. Elector August von Sachsen bought the estate in 1574 and had a cattle yard and a stud established here. Around 1800 the place had about 125 inhabitants. Friedrich Gottlob Leonhardi reported in the third volume of his description of the earth of the electoral Saxon lands, the third edition of which appeared in 1804: “Burckhardtsgrün, an official Freyguth with 16 houses and 114 inhabitants in 1800, but only 110 inhabitants in 1801, has one nearby Tin soap factory. "

Johann Traugott Lindner wrote in 1848: "From Burkhardtsgrün you have a distant view of the so-called Saxon Siberia , which does not deserve this name in any way, when you collect the road money."

Until 1832, Burkhardtsgrün was in the Electoral Saxon or Royal Saxon district office of Schwarzenberg . After its division, the place belonged to the Eibenstock office between 1832 and 1856 . From 1856 the place belonged to the Schneeberg court office and from 1875 to the Schwarzenberg administration , which was renamed the Aue district in 1947.

Through the second district reform in the GDR , Burkhardtsgrün came to the Aue district in the Chemnitz district (renamed the Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ), which was continued as the Saxon "Aue district" from 1990 and was added to the Aue-Schwarzenberg district in 1994 . In 1993/94 Union-Bau AG built the HERR-BERGE at the northern end of the village in the direction of Schneeberg , a nursing home for the elderly combined with a social-therapeutic dormitory, with assisted living, physiotherapy, occupational therapy and holiday apartments of the Evangelical Free Churches communities .

On January 1, 1996 Burkhardtsgrün was incorporated into Zschorlau . Since 2008 the place belongs to the Erzgebirge district.
