history

The place name Eisenberg and thus today's place Moritzburg was first mentioned in a document in 1294, when a "Hermannus de Ysenberc", father of the later Meißner Bishop Johann I von Isenburg , appears as a documentary witness. The German place name can mean something like “settlement where iron ore was found”, which is related to the occurrence of lawn iron stone in the area. Other interpretations create a connection to a castle name, i.e. see a reference to a fortified hill, which could later be the Kirchberg. The manor of Hermannus de Ysenberc could also have been located there. Over the centuries, the place name changed from the forms "Ysenberg", "Ysemberg" and "Eyssenbergk" to the name "Eisenberg".

On the 346 hectare (as of 1885) large corridor, the inhabitants of the Waldhufendorf farmed and raised cattle, and after the Moritzburg ponds were built in the 16th century, they also raised fish. The administration of the administrative village was carried out by the office of Moritzburg, then by the administrative authority of Dresden . Eisenberg had been a parish after Reichenberg since the Reformation and formed the parish Eisenberg-Moritzburg from 1900, for which the Moritzburg Church was built until 1904 . On April 20, 1675, Elector Johann Georg II granted the village market rights ; Among other things, horse markets were held here, as evidenced by the street name "Roßmarkt". On May 4, 1675, the owner of what is now known as the Adam's Inn was licensed to serve .

On the basis of the rural community order of 1838 , Eisenberg gained independence as a rural community . The Moritzburg manor district, which comprised the forests and hunting grounds from the Auer to the Pheasant Castle, also became part of this rural community . As a result, the community received the double name "Eisenberg-Moritzburg" before 1900. In 1934 the name was changed to "Moritzburg". Since then the name has actually also stood for the former village of Eisenberg, only the district still bears the old name.
