Deanery Lübben-Senftenberg
The deanery Lübben-Senftenberg is one of the three deaneries in the Roman Catholic diocese of Görlitz . On August 4, 2004, Bishop Rudolf Müller decreed the reorganization of the previous deaneries Cottbus, Finsterwalde-Lübben, Görlitz, Neuzelle and Senftenberg as of September 1, 2004. The reason for the restructuring was the decreasing number of believers and pastors in the Görlitz diaspora. In addition, it was foreseeable that around half of the previous parishes and parish curatios in the diocese would not be able to continue to exist independently. Already in the pastoral plan of the diocese of October 16, 2001, a merger of parishes had been prepared. The deanery emerged from the deanery Finsterwalde-Lübben and today's parishes Großräschen (then Altdöbern, Großräschen, Neupetershain and Welzow) and Senftenberg (then Klettwitz, Ruhland, Schwarzheide and Senftenberg). The previous deanery Senftenberg also included the areas of today's Saxon parishes of Wittichenau and Hoyerswerda. However, crossing the national border led to problems and thus formed another reason for the restructuring.
dean
The dean and his deputy are appointed by the bishop. The priests of the deanery convention have the right to propose an election from their own ranks.

In the event of the death of a dean's priest, the dean is responsible for organizing the funeral.
