geography

Jauernick is 340 meters above sea level on a watershed at the eastern foot of the Czorneboh massif, surrounded by the Richtersberg, Hochstein , Kuppritzer Berg and Pfaffenberg . This is where the Kuppritz water and the buttermilk water with its spring stream Flößel arise. A pass road leads through Jauernick from Plotzen via Lehn to Kleindehsa . The cadastre covers 45 hectares.

history

The place name , derived from the word "jawor" (= Spitz maple), indicates a Slavic foundation. A Slavic castle is said to have been located here between the 10th and 12th centuries.

The first mention of the place "Jawirnig" with a saucer and two goods took place in 1413 in a purchase contract between the landlord on Wuischke and the council of Löbau. This shows that the place had been under the jurisdiction of Löbau since the middle of the 14th century. The "Jawornich" listed in the Upper Lusatian border document in 1241 refers to Jauernick near Görlitz .

Mansion

The relatively small estate with 45 hectares mostly belonged to the lords of the Lehn estate. Jauernick had been a manor since the middle of the 17th century. The estate was owned by the von Gersdorff family from 1701 to 1760 and then by the Prenzel family until 1794. In 1846 Johann Friedrich Hohlfeld purchased the estate. The von Craushaar family owned the estate between 1909 and 1945. As part of the municipality of Plotzen , Jauernick was assigned to the Bautzen district in 1952. In 1997 it was incorporated into Hochkirch .

Mansion

Two coats of arms on the manor house

On the simple building, built in 1737 by the von Gersdorff family, with an upper floor and extended roof bay, there are two sandstone coats of arms from the middle of the 18th century. On October 13, 1758, the Austrian Field Marshal Daun set up his headquarters in the manor house before the Battle of Hochkirch .

In 1909 the Bautzen district chief Georg von Craushaar had a villa built in the manor park, in which a special children's home was set up for preschoolers during the GDR era. In 1945 the estate was expropriated as the property of SS leader Harry von Craushaar . The old manor house is now used as a residential building. On the edge of the estate park there is a stone Maltese cross from the 16th century, which until 1900 was on a field to the west of the estate.

population

For his statistics on the Sorbian population in Upper Lusatia, Arnošt Muka counted four inhabitants in the 1880s; all of them were Sorbs .
