history

The place was first mentioned in documents in 1336. In 1445 there were five farms occupied and in 1583 eight were occupied. At that time 60 people lived in the village. In 1836 the estate burned down.

Ingramsdorf belonged to the Wettin office of Altenburg , which was under the sovereignty of the following Ernestine duchies from the 16th century onwards 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, Ingramsdorf belonged to the Eastern District (until 1900) and to the Ronneburg District Office (from 1900). From 1918 the village belonged to the Free State of Saxony-Altenburg , which was added to the State of Thuringia in 1920. In 1922 it came to the district of Gera .

On April 1, 1937, Ingramsdorf was incorporated into Drosen , which in turn has belonged to Löbichau since October 1, 1961. During the second district reform in the GDR in 1952, the existing states were dissolved and the districts were redesigned. Thus, Ingramsdorf came as a district of the municipality of Drosen or Löbichau with the district of Schmölln to the district of Leipzig , which had belonged to Thuringia since 1990 as the district of Schmölln and which became part of the district of Altenburger Land during the Thuringian district reform in 1994 .

Since 1974, uranium ore has been mined in several shafts in the "Drosen deposit" by the SDAG Wismut . The headframe of Shaft 403 south of Ingramsdorf, which was sunk in June 1976, is a witness to this . Uranium ore has been mined there since 1982. Between 1984 and 1994, the "Drosen freight station" on the Beerwalde – Drosen railway line west of Ingramsdorf was in operation for transportation and was served by the Wismut factory railway. Up to 1991 shiftworker trains also ran here from Gera main station via Beerwalde to the Drosen freight station, where the "Drosen ore loading" was located. After the shutdown of uranium mining in 1991, the area was redeveloped. The Drosen heap disappeared when the material was transferred to the Beerwalde heap.
