history

In Gansgrün in 1327 a defense system "Johannsgrune", probably a fortress or castle, was mentioned. At that time, the castle, along with other Vogtland castles, was transferred from the bailiffs of Plauen to the kings of Bohemia as lords of the Plauen rule. The place name is derived from "Rodesiedlung einer Johann". As the story progressed, the name changed from "Jansgrün" (1428) to "Gansgrün" (1460).

The manor Gansgrün owes its origin to the Teutonic Order of Plauen , which used its possessions in Gansgrün in the 12th century to build a datei . In 1428 Conrad Molstorfer von Gansgrün is named as the owner. With the introduction of the Reformation in Vogtland around 1520, the appointments in Gansgrün were abolished and the monastic property with the fields, meadows, forests, ponds and buildings belonging to it was given to the Röder family . The von Röder family formed the Gansgrün manor , which has been documented as such since 1583. In addition to Gansgrün u. a. still Pöhl , Cossengrün and Möschwitz . Around 1750, the Gansgrün manor was acquired by Baron von Beust , who had also owned the neighboring Thossfell manor since 1715 . Since then, the Gansgrün manor was managed as a Vorwerk until around 1830 . After the renovation of the building it became an independent manor again. In 1840 the estate came to Theodor Keller on Liebau . When Keller's widow remarried, the estate came to the Arnold family in 1867. Other owners were Conrad Wolf in 1901 and Thilo Reinhold Heitsch, who owned it from 1902 until it was expropriated in 1953.

Until the 19th century, the manorial power over Gansgrün was partly held by the manors Gansgrün, Thoßfell and Helmsgrün . Another part of Gansgrün was subordinate to the administrative village of Plauen. Gansgrün was in the Electoral Saxon or Royal Saxon Office of Plauen until 1856 . In 1856 the place was affiliated with the Plauen court office and in 1875 with the Plauen administration . In the 19th century, the “Lauras Glück” mine was operated on the Kammerholz. Iron and copper ores were mined there. In the process of land reform in the Soviet occupation zone of the landowner Thilo Reinhold Heitsch was expropriated in 1953 and the manor in the following year in a folklore converted. Today it is used for residential purposes.

As a result of the second district reform in the GDR , the community of Gansgrün became part of the Plauen-Land district in the Chemnitz district (renamed the Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ), which was continued as the Saxon "Plauen district" from 1990 and became part of the Vogtland district in 1996 . Between 1958 and 1964, the Pöhl dam was built to the west and south of the town by damming the Trieb . On April 1, 1974, Gansgrün was incorporated into Thossfell. On January 1, 1994, Thossfell and its district Gansgrün were incorporated into Neuensalz.
