Goppeln is a district of the Saxon community of Bannewitz in the district of Saxon Switzerland-Eastern Ore Mountains .

geography

Goppeln is located on the southern slopes of the Dresden Elbe valley and has a local structure characterized by agriculture. South of the village, the Gebergrund (from Slav. Javor , the maple) cuts about 50 m into the plateau.

In the 1990s, due to the preferred location on the outskirts of Dresden, new single-family houses were built on the western outskirts through suburbanization . In 2005, the federal motorway 17 running north-east of the town was built with the junction and motorway maintenance office “Dresden-Prohlis” and the Goppeln / Rippien state road 191 bypass .

In the course of the incorporation to Bannewitz in 1996, Goppeln received its current status as a village , to which, in addition to Goppeln itself, the districts of Golberode and Gaustritz also belong. Kauscha , which was also part of this village, has belonged to Dresden since 1999.

monastery

The mother house of the Nazareth Sisters of St. Francis , a Roman Catholic women's congregation founded by Augustina Schumacher .

During the GDR era, the sisters looked after a children's home in the complex , which was converted into the Catholic retirement and nursing home St. Clara in the 1990s . Cardinal Groër also found refuge here for a few months in 1998 . The monastery still offers space for seniors who want to end their old age in an idyllic place. It is known for its monastery café, which is widely used by the nuns who live there, but also by tourists and residents. The income is used to maintain the monastery and other charitable purposes.

Painter village

The place became known as a painter's village in the last decade of the 19th century. A group of young artists came together here in an artist colony . The Goppelner artists' colony was distinguished by its specialization in open-air painting and impressionism, and as the “Goppelner School” it became a household name in art history .

The Brücke painters Ernst Ludwig Kirchner and Max Pechstein also worked in Goppeln for a short time. Some of them then founded a new artist colony elsewhere or relocated to another.
