history

Entrance
Municipal administration of Striegistal in Etzdorf

Like the surrounding towns, Etzdorf was founded in the course of the German settlement in the east in the 12th century. Written evidence from the time of settlement is not known. The first documentary evidence comes from the year 1314 as "Ezwinstorf". Similar to other surrounding villages, only Marbach and Rossau are to be mentioned, the row village with Waldhufenflur Etzdorf originally consisted of two rural communities.

Etzdorf was on the northern edge of the area that Margrave Otto had cleared and donated to the Altzella monastery by Emperor Barbarossa . Around 1445 there was evidence of a knight's seat in Etzdorf. After the Reformation Etzdorf came regarding the manorial schriftsässig the manor Gersdorf . The manor owner was responsible for jurisdiction and patronage over the church and school. After the secularization of the Altzella monastery in 1540, Etzdorf belonged to the Electoral Saxon or Royal Saxon Office of Nossen until 1856 . From 1856 Etzdorf belonged to the Roßwein court office and from 1875 to the Döbeln administration , which was renamed the Döbeln district in 1939. Before 1875 Gersdorf and Hohenlauft were incorporated. The Hohenlauft district was reclassified to Niederstriegis on July 1, 1950 .

With the second district reform in the GDR, the municipality of Etzdorf and Gersdorf came to the newly founded Hainichen district in the Chemnitz district (renamed the Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ). Since 1990 the municipality of Etzdorf has belonged to the Saxon district of Hainichen , which was added to the district of Mittweida in 1994 and in 2008 to the district of central Saxony.

On January 1, 1994, the municipality of Etzdorf and the district of Gersdorf merged with the municipalities of Dittersdorf , Arnsdorf , Naundorf , Marbach (with Kummersheim ) and Böhrigen to form the municipality of Tiefenbach . The seat of the new community was the former Etzdorf school. The municipalities of Tiefenbach and Striegistal in turn merged on July 1, 2008 to form the new municipality of Striegistal, which has made Etzdorf a district and the municipality seat of Striegistal since then.

Spelling and interpretation of the place name

1314: Ezwinstorf
1382: Eczilsdorf
1412: Oczilstorff
1445/1447: the marshal to Eczilstorf
1477: Eczsdorff
1485: Etzdorff

The name could go back to a personal name Ezwin , which has not yet been proven in Saxony. A spelling mistake in the document from 1314 would also be possible. Etz's reference to ore formulated in 1791 arose from the writer's imagination.

Parish Church of St. Mary

Except for the remains of the tower, the church is a new building from 1865 with simple Romanesque and Gothic shapes. A porphyry baptism from the 17th century, an alabaster relief from around 1600 and a sandstone grave memorial from 1668 have been preserved from the previous building.

When the church became too small due to the population growth in the 19th century, the parish decided to rebuild the nave. The tower was preserved in the lower part. A spacious, flat-roofed nave with three galleries was built based on the model of the baroque gallery churches, combined with a "Gothic" choir and "Gothic" pointed arched windows. The organ that still exists today was installed in 1867. It comes from the workshop of Johann Gotthilf Bärmig from Werdau.

In connection with a restoration of the interior, a barrel vault was drawn into the nave in 1966 . It rests on the parapet of the third gallery and is therefore a “lightweight” construction for structural reasons. To do this, bamboo sticks were hung from the ceiling with wires. These bamboo sticks were glued together with mortar to form a vault. After this material solidified, the wires were superfluous and partially removed.

prehistory

The following is known about the earlier church: According to Beyer, there was a church dedicated to the Virgin Mary in Etzdorf in 1346. For the people who settled here around the middle of the 12th century, worship was a vital need. Like every farmer, the church was given a hoof of land or more, which, as evidenced in Etzdorf, was cultivated by the farmers in turn. This also involved the construction of a church and a pastor's apartment. That was the basis of life for the pastor. The names of five pastors have survived from the pre-Reformation period:

  • Peter 1418
  • Matthäus Krause, died in 1480
  • Blasius Krause
  • Georg Jähnichen
  • Magister Melchior Bagarius, the last Catholic priest who accepted the Protestant faith after 1539 and is said to have been in office in 1546.

After the Reformation , several bells and an altar came from the Altzella monastery to Etzdorf.

Silbermann organ

In 1745 the parish bought a positive organ that Gottfried Silbermann had built in 1734 at the latest. The instrument had a manual and eight stops. What was missing were deep tones penetrating the church. In 1796 the people in Gersdorf paid for two bass registers with pedal and two new bellows from the Benzky company in Dresden.

In 1838 the organ was given to Wallroda . From there it was brought to Bischofswerda in 1902 and was finally privately owned from 1919 until it was located in Bremen Cathedral in 1939 . At that time, 75 of the original 100 pipes were still available. In 1994 a reconstruction and restoration took place in the Wegscheider organ workshop in Dresden . Today the instrument is largely in its original condition. At the same time, the workshop made a copy of the instrument, which has been in the Gottfried Silbermann Museum in Frauenstein in the Ore Mountains since 1994 .
