history

Like Rossdorf, which is not far away, the place was first mentioned in 1121 as Szarnazandorf in a document from Bishop Reinhard von Halberstadt . In this he confirms 17 hooves and 3 acres in Szarnazandorf to the Wimmelburg monastery (Wimodeburg).

A mention as Gerintzendorf in a document from 1298 turned out to be a forgery, but the forger seems to have used a real record, only that he accidentally read Gerintzendorf instead of Zerntzendorf.

A document dated April 24, 1368 shows with certainty that Zcercendorp had already been abandoned and that its corridor was incorporated into the town of Eisleben. This probably happened in 1362, after Landgrave Friedrich III of Thuringia besieged Eisleben in the still ongoing Halberstadt bishop's feud and devastated and burned the surrounding villages, including Kirchendorf. This document says: "... unde setten on des tu a pande unsen teiden (= tithes) and unsen tins (= interest), the wy hebben in the stat tu isleve unde up dem velde tu Zcercendorp"

Further documentary mentions:

  • July 1, 1422 - The abbot Friedrich and the convent of the Weymelburgh monastery document "... a quarter of the country, located on the margk zcu Czerzendorff in front of the high gate"
  • February 24, 1463 - Abbot Nikolaus mentions Weymelborgk "... eyne half hoof land in the field of Czerczendorff, dy went from us to fief"
  • 1579 - In the Eisleber permutation process, the ore monastery of Magdeburg surrenders the Kirchendorfer Mark, which is attached to Eisleben, to Electoral Saxony.

The last time, as an accessory from Mansfeld, Kirchendorf is mentioned as Zerkendorf in 1609.

In 1901, during excavation work to connect the Clotilde shaft (later Max Lademann shaft) to the union narrow-gauge rail network, a mass grave was discovered on the left edge of the Glumetal. Skeletons in rows were found at regular intervals. The buried lay stretched out from east to west with their arms crossed. Wood remains suggest that they were buried in coffins. It is undoubtedly the church village church.
