history

The cul-de-sac village was first mentioned in 1205 as in utroque Kagan in the founding deed of St. Afra Monastery . In 1378 the place belonged to the Castrum Meißen in the margraviate of Meißen . The basic rule exercised the chapter Meissen. From the middle of the 16th century, a membership in the office of Meissen is given. From 1875 the place was part of the administrative authority of Meißen in the Kingdom of Saxony and later in the Weimar Republic .

In 1900 the local boundary had a size of 202 hectares . Großkagen was parish in the St. Afra monastery in Meißen and is now part of the local parish there . After the First World War, a war memorial to the fallen was erected in Großkagen , which is now included in the cultural monuments list for Käbschützal . From the independent communities Großkagen, Kleinkagen, Mohlis , Nimtitz, Priesa, Pröda and Tronitz , the new community Kagen was formed on November 1, 1935, which became part of the Soviet occupation zone and later the GDR after the end of the Second World War . After the administrative authorities were renamed districts in 1939, the state was reorganized in the 1952 district reform . Kagen and its districts were added to the Meissen district in the Dresden district. From January 1, 1969, two reorganizations followed in the Käbschütz valley. First, Kagen merged with the community of Jahna and its districts to form Jahna-Kagen . This community united on March 1, 1974 with Löthain to Jahna-Löthain .

After reunification and reunification , Großkagen became part of the newly founded Free State of Saxony and remained in the district of Meißen. For the district reform in 1994 , the district of Meißen-Radebeul (from 1996 district of Meißen ) was formed from the old area of ​​the district of Meißen and parts of the Dresden-Land district to which Großkagen belonged until 2008. Also in 1994, Jahna-Löthain, Krögis and Planitz-Deila merged to form the new large community Käbschützal with 37 districts. Since August 1, 2008, this municipality has been part of the third district of Meißen, which was formed from the district of Meißen and the district of Riesa-Großenhain in the Saxony district reform in 2008 .
