history

Neutz was first mentioned in 961 as Nudcici , Lettewitz in 1156 as Lectewice , Görbitz in 1288 as Gorowicz and Deutleben in 1079 as Deidenlibe .

The places belonged to the hall circle of the Archbishopric of Magdeburg . While Neutz was under noble jurisdiction, Lettewitz and Görbitz places were in the Wettin office . Deutleben belonged to the spiritual prelature Deutleben, which was occupied by the pastor of Wettin. With the annexation of the Archbishopric of Magdeburg to Prussia, the four places belonged to the Brandenburg-Prussian Duchy of Magdeburg from 1680 . With the Peace of Tilsit in 1807 they were incorporated into the Kingdom of Westphalia and assigned to the Halle district in the Saale department. They belonged to the canton of Wettin . After Napoleon's defeat and the end of the Kingdom of Westphalia, Napoleon's allied opponents liberated the Saalkreis in early October 1813.

During the political reorganization after the Congress of Vienna in 1815, Neutz, Lettewitz, Görbitz and Deutleben were attached to the administrative district of Merseburg in the Prussian province of Saxony and assigned to the Saalkreis. On October 1, 1938, Deutleben was incorporated into Neutz and from Görbitz to Lettewitz. Neutz and Lettewitz merged on October 1, 1965 to form Neutz-Lettewitz.

On January 1, 2011, the municipalities of Löbejün and Wettin as well as the municipalities of Brachwitz , Döblitz , Domnitz , Gimritz , Nauendorf , Neutz-Lettewitz, Plötz and Rothenburg , which had previously been part of the Saalkreis Nord administrative community, became the new town of Löbejün-Wettin , which already received its current name Wettin-Löbejün on April 7, 2011.

The Romanesque church of Neutz, built around 1200, is located in the north of the village. It is constructed from rubble stones with Romanesque joint treatment and corner blocks. The nave closes in the east with a semicircular apse. The southern entrance door is decorated with Romanesque stone ornamentation; four fish (symbols), including leaf arabesques. There is a small gallery that leads around on three sides. In the church, seven wooden figures from a former altar shrine are now placed individually.
