Grumbach emerged in the 2nd half of the 12th century during the settlement of the Mark Meissen . In 1215, the vassal of the Margraves of Meißen , Boriwo de Tarant , who was resident at Tharandt Castle , established his property in the Grumbacher Flur to supply the castle as Boriwos Dorf ( Pohrsdorf ). In an episcopal Meissen document from February 9, 1223, Grumbach is first mentioned as Villa Grombach . Grumbach was originally laid out as a forest hoof village and characterized by agriculture with mainly rural elements, as there was never a manor house .

In the 14th century the village was subordinate to three different offices : the Niederdorf to the right of the Wilde Sau brook to the Dresden office , the upper village to the Tharandt office and the largest part on the left bank to the Meißen office . After several changes in ownership, Grumbach grew into a unified municipality in the 16th century.

Until 1833, the place was on the supraregional postal route Dresden - Nuremberg in the course of the Alte Frankenstrasse , later Hofer Chaussee and today's B 173 with an escort and relaxation (former inheritance court, now Gasthof Grumbacher Hof ) at the intersection with an old pilgrim route and the regional postal route Tharandt - Wilsdruff . A Royal Saxon whole milestone from the Freiberg –Wilsdruff postal route and a Saxon royal half milestone from the Tharandt – Wilsdruff postal route have been preserved from the period from 1859 to 1900, and have been standing at the reconstructed escort barrier next to the inn since 2011 . In the same year, a post-mile pillar in the form of a half-mile pillar from 1723 was reproduced there, the original of which was still in Grumbach around 1800. 1886 to 1972 there was a connection to the narrow-gauge railway Freital-Potschappel - Wilsdruff of the Wilsdruffer narrow-gauge network , of which u. a. the station building was preserved as a residential building.

The school in Grumbach has been teaching since 1883; today it is used as a Protestant elementary school. The town hall was inaugurated in 1926. In 1975 the newly built kindergarten was opened. After the voters on 8 March 1998 referendum had agreed to a merger of the municipality Grumbach and the city Wilsdruff, the incorporation was completed on July 9, 1998th

Personalities

Parish and House of Silence

church

The parish of Grumbach belongs to the Evangelical Lutheran regional church of Saxony , specifically to the church district of Meißen.

The church in Grumbach has been documented since 1303. In it there is still a Romanesque portal from the 13th century. Your famous picture ceiling was only created after the Thirty Years War .

The last parish priest was Pastor Heiner Bludau (2000–2006). He headed the parish and until 2010 the House of Silence. Under his guidance, the Grumbach labyrinth was built from stones by visitors to the house in August 2002 and can be found in the parish garden. After a structural reform, the rectory for Grumbach was canceled and the parish was looked after by the parish of Wilsdruff-Kesselsdorf. Pastor Schönfuß, who lives in Grumbach, has been running the House of Silence since 2010.

The sister parish of Kesselsdorf is led by Pastor Volker Geißler, the partner parish is Pattensen in the Lüneburg Heath .

The old Grumbach rectory has been expanded in recent years to offer retreats within the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Saxony and is now known as the House of Silence on the Saxon Way of St. James on the Frankenstrasse .
