The district is located in the upper part of Schönheide. On the north side of this district lies the partly wooded 721.9  m above sea level. NHN high mountain Fuchsstein. According to the natural space map of Saxony , the area lies in the mesogeochore "Schönheider plateau" and belongs to the microgeochore "Schönheider Kuppengebiet".

Surname

The author Ernst Flath, who wrote a story of Schönheide published around 1909, considers the first part of the name Fuchswinkel to be the name of the first settler in this district. But it could also be derived from the animal fox. "Winkel" as a name for a district is used several times in the municipality of Schönheide: Ascherwinkel , Fuchswinkel, Heinzwinkel , Schwarzwinkel (formerly Marquartswinkel). Siegfried Sieber calls this term an old field name. This is confirmed in the German dictionary of the Brothers Grimm , according to which the term "angle" "is often to be found in place and field names to designate pieces of land that bend in between mountains, forests and river bends" .

In Aster's map series from 1792, the terms “Der Fuchswinckel” and “Der Fuchsstein” are used, and some houses and paths are shown south-east of the Fuchsstein. Albert Schiffner reports in Volume 18 of the Schmannschen Lexikon from 1833 that the Fuchswinkel is lined up on Baumannsberg almost to the northwest, it runs "towards the Fuchssteine" and comes "- like the Markerswinkel - close to Neuheide". In a place directory from 1837, the designation Fuchswinkel is used and explained: “Belongs to Schönheide; forms a separate group of houses to Neuheide ”. There is no information in the columns “Number of residential buildings” and “Inhabitants”. Albert Schiffner mentions the Fuchswinkel as “Ortstheil” in his handbook about Saxony published in 1839 and reports that the Fuchswinkel is “not far from Neuheide”. The place directory for Saxony from 1862 mentions the Fuchswinkel as belonging to Schönheide, but does not give any details.

In Schönheide the name “Fuchs” appeared 26 times in the 1896 address book, 17 times in the 1913 address book, 29 times in the 1926 and 27 times in the 1930 together with Schönheiderhammer and Neuheide. Even in the 21st century, the well-known name bearer in Schönheide is the “fox saddler”.

history

The district of Fuchswinkel part of the first settlement of Schönheide?
The Bismarck Memorial Committee was established around 1900.

The beginning of the settlement of Schönheide is dated to 1537. In the founding deed for Schönheide, the so-called liberation letter of March 20, 1549 jul. of Balthasar Friedrich Edler von der Planitz , the location of the double hooves is described as reaching on the one hand from the Dorfbach north to the Filzbach and on the other hand south to the Zwickauer Mulde . The hooves of the founding phase reached in the northern area from the Filzbach to the Dorfbach. The district of Fuchswinkel cannot be regarded with certainty as part of the first settlement, according to the course of the Hufen, which can still be read in the property cadastre.

Because the district of Fuchswinkel was "separated from the actual complex of the more closely built village at a greater distance and built in a more dispersed manner", it was exempted from the ban on shingle, thatch and cane roofs in Saxony in 1848 "And in the country" was introduced by the "Ordinance, building control measures to avert the risk of fire relating to March 11, 1841".

On the occasion of the 100th birthday of the Reich Chancellor of Otto von Bismarck , a relief plaque was unveiled on April 1, 1915 on a vertical rock face on the Fuchsstein that was created by quarrying. As early as 1910, the community of Schönheide bought the Fuchsstein site for the monument project, converted it into a park and provided it with paths. After this redesign of the site, the name "Bismarkhain" was given. In 1945, the mountain got its original name back and the plaque was removed. The dowel holes for attaching the board can still be seen in the 21st century.

Observation pavilion on the Fuchsstein

From the 1950s to the end of the 1980s, an event called "Park and Press Festival" took place regularly in the summer in the Fuchsteingelände. The co-organizer was the Chemnitz regional newspaper " Freie Presse " - at that time as an organ of the SED district management of the GDR. District Karl-Marx-Stadt - was. Music events in particular were offered on a stage. "Stage" and "open-air theater" are entered on maps at the Fuchsstein. The name “Fuchsstein Park” and a representation of the area on the north side as a “ski practice slope” can be found in older maps for the wooded area around the Fuchsstein. Up into the 21st century, maps depict the area with paths as a park-like design and use the term “park”. An iron viewing pavilion stands at the highest point of the site.

After 1990, the plateau sloping south from the Fuchsstein was developed by the community of Schönheide and designated as a single-family home area. It is now fully developed. In this area is the building of a religious community. Since there is no formal delimitation of the individual districts of Schönheide, this area can also be regarded as not belonging to the district of Fuchswinkel. By assigning only one street name, namely "Am Fuchsstein", with numerous branch roads, the municipality of Schönheide did not create any clarity about the delimitation of the district in this way. The row of houses registered in the equidistant map from 1876 east of the Fuchsstein with the name "Fuchswinkel" registered to the east was understood as the district of Fuchswinkel until almost the end of the 20th century.

The name Johannesberg was derived from a farmer named Johannes in the local vernacular, it applies to the connection path from Schneeberger Straße up to the tracks of the narrow-gauge railway. Today this path bears the name "Am Fuchsstein", which is used for a number of streets and paths in this area.

Economy and Infrastructure

economy

A building complex with 52 apartments suitable for the elderly (“assisted living”) has been located in the new development area since 1999, it also houses a diaconal ward and a “senior citizens' meeting place”, which also organizes events such as monthly birthday parties for old people. A geriatric care center with 120 places of the Cura group called Barbara-Uttmann-Stift regularly offers events also for outsiders. Services are held at the facility. Both institutions were established in the mid-1990s. There is a wholesale beverage market on the site of the former train station. Craftsmen and carpenters complement the economic infrastructure of the district, which is mainly characterized by residential buildings.

traffic

The area is accessed from the “Am Fuchsstein” road. In the upper part of Schönheide, this branches off at two different points from the main street, Staatsstraße 278, and reaches the buildings with a series of spur streets that all bear the same name. Until the end of 1974, the part of this street that had existed until then was called "Fuchswinkel".

Museum railway

In the Fuchswinkel, the association Museumsbahn Schönheide e. V. his main place of work. Since 1993, this association has been operating a museum railroad on the tracks of the Wilkau-Haßlau-Carlsfeld narrow-gauge railway, which was closed in the 1970s, which was rebuilt in the early 1990s . The basis for this was the preserved locomotive shed, which offers space for two locomotives standing next to each other. To the north of the former Schönheide Mitte station - on the former station tracks there is a wholesale beverage market built after 1990 - is the final stop of the railway line of this museum railway, which extends to the Stützengrün-Neulehn station and offers regular travel days and also carries out special trips.

According to the classification by the Saxon State Office for the Preservation of Monuments , the locomotive shed is a cultural monument that is on the list of cultural monuments in Schönheide under the number 08957067. The state office classifies the property as follows: “Locomotive shed of the former Schönheide station on the narrow-gauge line Carlsfeld - Schönheide; Type construction of local and traffic-historical significance ”and indicates the year of origin“ around 1900 (railway operations facility) ”. Regular rail traffic began on December 16, 1893.
