history

The place was first mentioned in 1350 under the name Gosde . The place name, which comes from the Lower Sorbian language , denotes a settlement in the hornbeam or pedunculate oak forest. From around the 15th century, the place belonged to the Spremberg district in the margraviate of Niederlausitz and thus belonged to the Bohemian crown lands . Through the Peace of Prague in 1635 Gosda came to the Electorate of Saxony . In 1806 the Electorate of Saxony was elevated to the Kingdom of Saxony . After the division of the Kingdom of Saxony decided at the Congress of Vienna , the Gosda manor became Prussian in 1815. During the territorial reform in the following year, the Spremberg district was dissolved and Gosda was assigned to the Spremberg district in the province of Brandenburg .

According to the topographical-statistical overview of the administrative district of Frankfurt adO from 1844, Gosda had 81 residential buildings and 432 inhabitants at that time. The rural community included two water mills (including the Haidemühle operated as a grinding and cutting mill ), a windmill and a brick factory . Ecclesiastically, Gosda belonged to the neighboring community of Jessen. In 1864 the entire rural community of Gosda had 689 inhabitants, of which 471 lived in Gosda and 218 in Haidemühl. The Gosda district included the old and new booths colonies as well as another, a sheep farm, a cutting and oil mill, a steam mill and a water mill, and ten expanded farmsteads. At the census of December 1, 1871, the population of Gosda was composed as follows: In the rural municipality there were 338 inhabitants in 66 households. 159 of the inhabitants were male and 179 female; 80 inhabitants were children under ten years of age. In addition, all residents were of the Evangelical Lutheran denomination. The manor district of Gosda had an additional 331 inhabitants, of which 173 were male and 158 were female; 91 residents of the manor district were under ten years old. 295 inhabitants of the manor district were Evangelical Lutheran, 36 inhabitants were Catholics.

In the 1880s, Gosda was a predominantly Sorbian-speaking community. Arnošt Muka counted 379 Sorbs and five Germans out of 384 inhabitants for his statistics on the Sorbian population of Lusatia in 1884 . Muka names Gosda (with Haidemühl) next to Pulsberg as one of two “partly German” villages in the parish of Jessen; The entire population of the colony belonging to the Haidemühl glassworks is Czech and German and makes up half of the community residents, while the residents of Gosda are just as Sorbian as those of the neighboring villages.

During the 19th century, the population of the rural community of Gosda rose sharply, mainly due to the economic growth of the Haidemühl district. In 1890 there were 638 inhabitants in the entire municipality; in the census of December 1, 1910, the rural municipality of Gosda had 1003 and the manor Gosda 112 inhabitants. In 1928 the manor district was dissolved and united with the rural community. Since Gosda was now the much smaller town in the municipality, its name was changed to Gosda-Haidemühl in 1938 and Gosda was only one district. After the end of the Second World War, the place initially remained in the Spremberg (Lausitz) district, from which the Spremberg district was formed during the GDR district reform in July 1952 . This belonged to the Cottbus district . On January 1, 1964, the place name of Gosda was finally deleted from the community name, which from then on was only called Haidemühl .

From 1968 Gosda was relocated in favor of the advancing lignite opencast mine Welzow-Süd and finally devastated . The place last had 130 inhabitants. The local corridor of Gosda was first reclassified from the municipality of Haidemühl to Jessen . Jessen, in turn, was later also devastated and its municipal area was incorporated into Pulsberg on December 31, 1972 . Since the dissolution of the municipality of Pulsberg on January 1, 1974, the corridor of Gosda has belonged to the city of Spremberg.
