Groß Vogentz
Groß Vogentz or Groß Vogenz is a historical town near Muskau , the existence of which has so far neither been proven beyond doubt nor refuted. The situation is similar with the town of Landhauffe near Runde .
The village is named in a map of the Muskau registry from 1745. This map, which has a high degree of accuracy compared to earlier maps of the state rule or Lusatia, is the work of the Saxon cartographer Johann George Schreiber . According to this map, Groß Vogentz was south-east of Kromlau , south-west of Gablenz and north-west of Krauschwitz .
Although Schreiber's map was created about a century after the Thirty Years' War (1618–1648), which was devastating for Lusatia , the handwritten chronicle of the Gablenz pastor Peter Friedrich Halke (1761–1833) reports that the place was destroyed in that war is. The rector of Weißwasser, Robert Pohl, wrote in 1924: “The village square can no longer be identified today; it is questionable whether the village ever existed. "
