history

Foschenroda was first mentioned in a document in 1440. The type of settlement as a square village , d. H. the irregular arrangement of the goods around a village square suggests a Slavic origin of the place. Presumably in the 12./13. Century Franks settled in the village. The place name is a Slavic-German mixed name, which probably originated from Bos (short form of Boguslaw) or a similar Slavic first name. The B was later Germanized to V and F respectively. The meaning of Foschenroda can also be interpreted with cleared land.

Foschenroda was parish in Mylau until the 19th century , since then the place has belonged to the parish of Netzschkau. The manorial rule over Foschenroda lay with the Netzschkau manor until the 19th century , to which the Vorwerk Foschenroda belonged. The Vorwerk was located at the location of the Lorberchen Gasthof and was later converted into a residential building. Much of the building was demolished in the late 1970s. In its place is now a home.

Until 1856 Foschenroda belonged to the Electoral Saxon or Royal Saxon Office of Plauen . In 1856 the place was affiliated with the Reichenbach court office and in 1875 with the Plauen administration . South of the village, the iron silicate thuringite was mined from the "Polenzgrube" between 1862 and 1901 . At that time, 40 to 50 workers supplied the then Queen Marienhütte in Cainsdorf near Zwickau with 45 to 50 German ore every day. At the end of the Second World War , the Lenk inn, two barns and the upper pond were damaged in an emergency bomb in February 1945.

As a result of the second district reform in the GDR , the municipality of Foschenroda became part of Reichenbach in the Chemnitz district (renamed the Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ), which was continued as the Saxon district of Reichenbach from 1990 and became part of the Vogtlandkreis in 1996. On January 1, 1974, Foschenroda was incorporated into the city of Netzschkau.
