history
Göritz was first mentioned in 1452 as Goritz . In 1484 it was called again as Goritz . The translation is accepted with a small mountain . However, this translation is not considered safe, as the Lower Sorbian name variant begins with ch . This was called Chorize in 1761 . The Sorbian name also allows a connection to the Old Sorbian Chorici with a connection to the personal name choir . The place name was mentioned in 1816 as Göritz and in 1880 as Chórice . The village was shaped by the Göritz manor . On the northern border of the village there was a water mill on the Göritzer Mühlenfließ.
After the Congress of Vienna Göritz came with the entire Lower Lusatia to the Kingdom of Prussia and belonged to the district of Calau . In 1880 at least 33.7 percent Sorbs lived in the village. After the Second World War, Göritz belonged to the Calau district, which was newly founded in 1952 . The site was partially devastated in 1986 by the Seese-Ost opencast mine . Three families, ten people, moved within the town due to the demolition. The place belongs to the church district Niederlausitz . On December 31, 2001, the village was incorporated into Vetschau together with the towns of Naundorf , Repten and Stradow .
