In addition, the Haselbacher See, which was flooded from 1993 to 1999 and formed from a remaining open pit, still exists .

history
13th to 19th centuries
Haselbach was first mentioned in a document in 1282. Despite the German place name, it is assumed that a Sorbian village was founded, the most typical object, the Rundling . The place was the seat of a manor, its owner from 1521, Burgrave Hugo von Leißnig , initiated the creation of the Haselbacher ponds for fish farming, 16 in number, not to be confused with the Haselbacher See . The place burned down almost completely in the Thirty Years War . In 1804 a wool spinning mill was built on the largest of these waters.
Haselbach belonged to the Wettin office of Altenburg , which from the 16th century was under the sovereignty of the following Ernestine duchies due to several divisions during its existence : Duchy of Saxony (1554 to 1572), Duchy of Saxony-Weimar (1572 to 1603), Duchy of Saxony-Altenburg (1603 to 1672), Duchy of Saxony-Gotha-Altenburg (1672 to 1826). When the Ernestine duchies were reorganized in 1826, the place came back to the duchy of Saxony-Altenburg. After the administrative reform in the duchy, it belonged to the eastern district (until 1900) and to the Altenburg district office (from 1900).
Lignite mining in the Central German District began in 1867.
20th century to the present
In 1908 a briquette factory was built, which was demolished in 1992, and the pottery industry, which still exists today, was created because the mining waste contained high-quality clays; in 1941, 234,000 tons were processed. From 1918 Haselbach belonged to the Free State of Saxony-Altenburg , which was added to the State of Thuringia in 1920. In 1922 the place came to the district of Altenburg .
In the camps "Haselbach II" (occupied with 124 people) and "Haselbach IV" (42 people) forced laborers for the smoldering plant Regis-Breitingen and the Nordmann company were housed.
During the second district reform in the GDR in 1952, the existing states were dissolved and the districts were redesigned. Thus Haselbach came with the district Altenburg to the district of Leipzig . In 1954, the opening of the Haselbach III opencast mine , the last lignite opencast mine in the Altenburger Land, began, and in 1957 the first coal was mined. It was in operation until 1977. This was followed by reforestation and the flooding of the remaining hole from which the Haselbacher See emerged.
With the re-establishment of the Free State of Thuringia in 1990, Haselbach came to the Thuringian district of Altenburg, which was merged into the district of Altenburger Land in 1994. Since 1991 the place belongs to the administrative community Pleißenaue .
