Haidemuehl (Welzow)
Haidemühl , Gózdź in Lower Sorbian , was an industrial community around ten kilometers west of Spremberg. Until January 1, 1964, the community was called Gosda-Haidemühl . The place Haidemühl was devastated between 2004 and 2006 for the open-cast lignite mine Welzow-Süd . Most of the last 645 inhabitants were relocated to the newly built district of Haidemühl in the city of Spremberg. On January 1, 2006, the municipality of Haidemühl was incorporated into Welzow and was then an officially designated residential area of Welzow until February 2008 .
geography
Haidemühl was in the area of the Lausitz border wall , around ten kilometers west of Spremberg and 15 kilometers east of Senftenberg . At the time of the dissolution, the municipality bordered Spremberg in the north and east, the Saxon municipality Elsterheide with the district of Bluno in the south and the town of Welzow with the district Proschim in the west . State road 522 ran through the town.
history
The "Haidemühle" was originally a stately watermill in Gosda , which was first mentioned in a document in 1350 - the origin of the later industrial community of Gosda-Haidemühl. The name Haidemühl referred to a grinding and cutting mill that was located in the west of the Gosda district. The earliest mention of the Haidemühle dates back to July 21, 1584. At that time, the mill was first mentioned in the feudal letter issued to Kaspar von Minckwitz with Proschim and Welzow about the estate of Gosda.
The history of the place was closely linked to lignite and glass production - the origin of the community goes back to the glassworks built in 1835. In 1835 the glass manufacturer Greiner bought land to build the glassworks and three residential buildings for the workers - the foundation stone for what would later become Haidemühl. The community grew and in 1900, when the briquette factory was built, a new housing estate of five houses with eight apartments each was added - the colony was named " Werminghoff " after the director of the factory . In the years that followed, there were transport links to Spremberg and Senftenberg , rail connections to Welzow and Petershain, new glassworks and residential buildings. The joint school was established in 1929.
After the fall of the Berlin Wall (November 1989), monetary union and reunification (October 3, 1990), Haidemühl lost its traditional pillars: the traditional glass factory with 1280 and the briquette factory with 160 employees were closed.
The municipality of Haidemühl was dissolved with effect from January 1, 2006, by which time around three quarters of the population had been resettled. The name went to the new district of Spremberg, while the municipality area fell to the city of Welzow . Until the last residents moved out, the former community was continued as the Haidemühl residential area of the city of Welzow . Today the community has been completely relocated with its social , population and infrastructure , because the old location will finally have to give way to the opencast mine by 2018.
Economic history
Haidemühler Glashüttenwerke, GmbH, Haidemühl near Spremberg was founded in 1835 by Johann Christoph Greiner. Friedrich August Kaennichen acquired the plant in 1835. The owners were later Adolf Schiller (Aryanized after 1935) and then Rudolf Bricke and Reinhold Domaschke. The hut was expropriated after 1945, privatized in 1990, went bankrupt in 1993 and was closed. Other companies are the Werminghoff briquette factory of Eintracht AG, founded at the beginning of the 20th century, and WINOLUX GmbH (Willy Noack Elektroanlagen), a branch of Berlin-Friedenau (until around 1953).

Relocation
In 1993 it became concrete that the Haidemühl community should give way to the Welzow-Süd opencast mine. On June 30, 2000, the Haidemühl contract was signed by representatives of the Haidemühl community and Lausitzer Braunkohle AG . In it, Lausitzer Braunkohle AG (now LEAG ) committed itself to the citizens of Haidemühl and to the Haidemühl municipal council to plan and carry out the resettlement in a manner that meets the needs of the residents concerned.
The new location is in the east of the Spremberg district of Sellessen and has a size of approximately 90 hectares. The planning and development of the site took place from January 1, 2001 to June 30, 2003 - from July 1, 2003 the land ready for construction was available there. From June 30, 2003 to December 31, 2006 the residents of Haidemühl were resettled. The old settlement was demolished in 2004, and the Welzow-Süd opencast mine will reach its former location in 2018 . The state of Brandenburg has funded the resettlement with 5.6 million euros.
