geography

Hain is located in the north of the city of Gera near the border with Saxony-Anhalt .

history

The oldest known documentary mention dates back to 1191, in which a Volradus de Haen is named as a fellow witness. As part of the care Langenberg after its dissolution, Hain came into Wettin ownership together with Röpsen and parts of Roschütz and Dorna and remained there - most recently as part of the Duchy of Saxony-Altenburg - until the formation of the state of Thuringia in 1920 as an enclave in the middle of the Russian states .

Over the years, Röpsen has been the school and church location for Hain. Until the land reform in 1946, the economic center of the town was the manor - owned by the von Schauroth family for many years . In the time of Carl Friedrich von Schauroth (Colonel in the Saxon-Gotha Land Regiment), the remodeling of the Kempe , an old fortification, to an artistically valuable manor chapel and the creation of a baroque garden took place from 1693 .

In 1807 a von Brandenstein family became owners of the manor. In 1935 she sold it to the city of Gera, which in turn went to the German Reich, which set up a military training area on the extensive land. The chapel was demolished in 1938 because it was in a state of disrepair, the military training area was later used by the NVA and, since the fall of the Wall, by the Bundeswehr .

Apart from the manor there were small farms, the owners of which had to work on the estate as far as possible. With the land reform in 1946, the estate was broken up, parceled out and the stones from the demolished buildings were used to build ten new farmhouses. In the course of the collectivization of agriculture, the individual small businesses became an agricultural production cooperative (LPG).

In the years from 1945 to 1990 a central water supply, a consumption and a nurses' station were established. On July 1, 1950, the formerly independent community Wachholderbaum was incorporated into Hain.

As part of the law on the reorganization of the districts and independent cities in Thuringia, the independent municipality of Hain was incorporated into the city of Gera on July 1, 1994 after all legal means had been exhausted against the will of the residents.
