geography

The community Dreitzsch is located in the eastern part of the Orlatales and consists of the districts Dreitzsch and Alsmannsdorf .

history

The name Dreitzsch comes from the Slavonic and means in a figurative sense "bump, crush, tear up", that is, reclaiming wasteland.

Dreitzsch was first mentioned in a document in 1120.

In the Dreitzsch corridor, during excavations in 1936, 1976 and 1979, an extensive fire burial field from the Hallstatt period and a Slavic body burial field from the early and high Middle Ages were uncovered by the Germanic Museum of the University of Jena and the Institute for Anthropology .

The district Alsmannsdorf, which was independent until 1956, only developed later from the Vorwerk of the Dreitzsch manor . This was converted into a state property in 1844 , which existed in the Soviet occupation zone until the land reform in 1945. A castle that had a major impact on the townscape was blown up in 1948 .

During the Second World War , 14 workers from Czechoslovakia , Poland and the Soviet Union had to do forced labor on six farms in the Alsmannsdorf district . The grave of a Polish forced laborer is in the cemetery.

coat of arms

The coat of arms was approved on October 11, 1993:

Blazon : “Half split and divided by red, silver and blue; at the top in front a silver vessel composed of shards, behind a red harp inclined to the right, at the bottom a silver stone bridge consisting of two arches, underneath a floating silver wave beam. "

In the coat of arms symbols of both districts appear. A field symbolizes the excavations found in the cremation graveyard. The harp in the second part refers to the district Alsmannsdorf, which in the historical seal carried a harp with a seated ducal crown; however, the importance of the harp is unknown. The historical arch bridge shown in the shield base (now a listed building) is located in the Dreitzsch district and once led over the Orla, which is symbolized by the wave beam.

The coat of arms was designed by Manfred Fischer from Goßwitz .

St. Johannes village church
