geography

Gersdorf is located southeast of the Saxon state capital Dresden, roughly in the middle of the municipality of Bahretal, which in turn is in the center of the Saxon Switzerland-Eastern Ore Mountains district. The Waldhufendorf is located on the northern roof of the eastern Ore Mountains in the Elbe valley slate area . The location is on the Gersdorfer Bach in an orographically right side hollow of the valley of the bier . In the north lies Niedergersdorf, in the south, at right angles to it, Obergersdorf, also known as the fork. Several large farm estates have been preserved in the village. Edge areas of the district , in particular the Cottaer Busch in the northeast, the area around the Brand in the southeast and the slopes of Herbstberg (441 m) and Schärfling (418 m) in the southwest, are forested. A large part of the 796 hectares of land is used for agricultural purposes.

Gersdorf has grown together with the neighboring Bahretal district of Borna to a double village , separated only by the bier , which formed the Borna-Gersdorf community from 1973 to 1994 . With Ottendorf in the north, Friedrichswalde in the north-west as well as Göppersdorf and Wingendorf in the south-west, other districts of Bahretal border. To the south is the Bad Gottleuba-Berggießhübler district of Bad Gottleuba with the corridors Ober- u. Niederhartmannsbach and Giesenstein . East borders Berggießhübel on, northeast the United Cottaer hallway of Dohmaer hamlet Cotta .

The most important road on Gersdorfer Flur is the district road 8755, which leads east from Borna through Gersdorf to Berggießhübel. In Gersdorf, further streets branch off from it, which open up the upper and lower villages. Gersdorf is connected to the regional bus network of the Saxon Switzerland-Eastern Ore Mountains (RVSOE) .
