history

Today's Zwickau district of Schneppendorf emerged from the two once independent Waldhufendörfern Schneppendorf and Jüdenhain. They were founded in the 14th century by farmers from the Franconian - Thuringian region.

Schneppendorf was first mentioned in 1379 in a document from the Schönburg rulers as "Snepphenberg". Later the place names "Schnepfendorf" (around 1460) and "Schneppendorf" (around 1554) are documented. Jüdenhain was built around the same time as Schneppendorf. Its first form of name "Judithenhain" probably comes from a documented donation from a gentleman of Schönburg to the Countess Juditha, who is related to him.

Jüdenhain was under the administration of the Schönburg rulers until the 19th century . The place was initially a vassal court , from the 19th century it belonged to the Schönburg rule of Glauchau . The basic rule over Jüdenhain was partly owned by the manors of Upper and Lower Mosel , of which the first, like Jüdenhain, was Schönburgish, but the other belonged to the Saxon office of Zwickau. In terms of church, Jüdenhain was always parish after Thurm .

The Schneppendorfer fiefs and interests belonged to the council of the city of Zwickau around 1553. Around 1590 the place was Amtsdorf, which until 1856 belonged to the Electoral Saxon or Royal Saxon Office of Zwickau . In terms of church, Schneppendorf was also parish in the Schönburg tower until 1529, after which the church belonged to Crossen in the Saxon office of Zwickau.

Originally, blacksmithing in the villages of Jüdenhain and Schneppendorf was carried out in the village forge von Crossen, founded in 1399 in the Saxon-Meissnian area. After Wilhelm Margrave of Meißen forbade the settlement of craftsmen in his area with severe punishment around 1421, the Schönburg rulers issued the first craft permit around 1501. Thus the "hammer mill" was created in the Jüdenhain in Schönburg. The second grinding mill was built around 1598 at the current location of the fire brigade. The first Jüdenhain village blacksmith went into operation in 1621. For a long time, the “Marktsteig” leading through Jüdenhain was the only trade route between Zwickau and Mülsengrund in Schönburg . In the course of time, cottagers, stocking workers, brick makers and linen weavers settled in the village. In addition to mills, blacksmiths, bakeries, butchers and restaurants, this also resulted in smaller textile companies, brickworks and building trades.

In 1856 Schneppendorf came to the Zwickau court office and in 1875 to the Zwickau administration . After an administrative reform was carried out in the area of ​​the Schönburg recession in 1878, Jüdenhain also joined the Zwickau administration. Jüdenhain has always been the larger of the two places. While Jüdenhain had a population of 221 people in 1806, 599 people lived in the village at the turn of the 20th century and 611 people in the early 1920s. Schneppendorf, on the other hand, had a population of 98 in 1806, 149 in 1900 and 171 in 1920.

Although Jüdenhain had significantly more inhabitants than Schneppendorf, on April 1, 1938, Jüdenhain was incorporated into Schneppendorf, which means that the name Schneppendorf was also carried over to what is now Jüdenhain. In 1952 Schneppendorf was assigned to the Zwickau-Land district in the Chemnitz district (renamed the Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ). Since 1990 Schneppendorf has belonged to the Saxon district of Zwickau, which was added to the district of Zwickauer Land in 1994 . After Schneppendorf had entered into an administrative partnership with Crossen in 1992 , it was incorporated into Crossen on January 1, 1994. On October 1, 1996, the Crossen community lost its independence and was incorporated into Zwickau. This also made Schneppendorf a district of Zwickau. Today Schneppendorf belongs to the "Northern District" and has the official number 38.

In 2008, the "Sandwerke Biesern GmbH" planned to open two gravel pits north and south of Schneppendorf . In contrast, the citizens' initiative “Zwickau-Schneppendorf Pro Natur” was formed. The subsequent revocation of the mining rights for the planned gravel mining by the Saxon Mining Authority in Freiberg in 2012 was reversed in the appeal proceedings by the Bautzen Higher Administrative Court on May 30, 2018, giving the Biesern sand works the opportunity to present an operating plan. Also in 2012 the city of Zwickau planned to build an industrial area on the outskirts of Schneppendorf, but this was given up again in 2013.
