history
Big umbrella company was founded in the middle of the 12th century. The origin was fixed at 956 by Großschirmaer home chronicles. Despite the clear file and research situation as well as references to historical research, they still owe no proof of this. Until the Reformation , the place belonged to the Altzella monastery . With the introduction of the Reformation and the secularization of the Altzella monastery, Großschirma first came to the Nossen office .
In 1555, Elector August sold the village of Großschirma along with 14 other villages from the former monastery property to his councilor Ulrich von Mordeisen . Rudolph Mordeisen, one of his sons, sold Großschirma and at least another nine villages of the family estate in 1587 to the Elector Christian. Since then, Großschirma, like its current district of Seifersdorf, was part of the Freiberg district office of Electoral Saxony or the Royal Saxon district until 1856 .
With the start of mining in the Freiberg mining district , large companies also began to benefit from the upswing. The state mine Churprinz Friedrich August Erbstolln (also: Churprinz for short ), not far from the western bank of the Mulden, was one of the richest mines in the Freiberg district in terms of yield .
It is noteworthy that from 1789 to 1868 the ore extracted here for smelting was transported by water - via the so-called Churprinzer Bergwerkskanal - to Halsbrücke.
From 1856, Großschirma belonged to the Freiberg judicial office and from 1875 to the Freiberg district administration . As a result of the second district reform in the GDR , Großschirma came to the Freiberg district in the Chemnitz district in 1952 (renamed the Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ), which was continued as the Saxon district of Freiberg from 1990 and was added to the district of central Saxony in 2008.
Incorporations
In 2003 the city of Siebenlehn offered to merge with a large company due to financial problems after the incorporation to Reinsberg had failed due to the veto of the Reinsberg municipal councils. The city had taken over with the development of an industrial park and was threatened by forced administration . The merger was completed on September 1, 2003, with which the town charter passed from Siebenlehn to Großschirma. It was the first incorporation of a city into a rural community in Saxony.
