Local history

The village of Kleinliebenau was mentioned in a document in 1307 as parvum Lyuenow , two years later the church was mentioned in a document from the Merseburg bishop Heinrich IV. A sacrament niche with an image of Saint Nicholas as the patron saint of the merchants indicates that this is on the way to the city of Leipzig came through Kleinliebenau.

In the village there was a manor in the 16th century at the latest , which exercised the manorial rule over the place. Kleinliebenau was in merseburgischen hochstiftlich- Office Schkeuditz , which since 1561 under electoral Saxon stood sovereignty and between 1656/57 and 1738 for Sekundogenitur -Fürstentum Saxe-Merseburg belonged. After the Napoleonic Wars lost for the Kingdom of Saxony and the division of the Kingdom of Saxony decided by the Congress of Vienna , Kleinliebenau came to Prussia in May 1815 (as a border town named in the treaty) with the western part of the Schkeuditz office and, after an administrative reform, became the district of Merseburg in 1816 affiliated to the province of Saxony .

At the end of the Second World War , the region was occupied by the Americans. After the Americans withdrew, the place was in the Soviet occupation zone . The then newly formed state of Saxony-Anhalt was dissolved in 1952 as part of the administrative reform in the GDR and Kleinliebenau came to the Leipzig-Land district in the Leipzig district . A little later the place was incorporated into Dölzig on January 1, 1957 . With Dölzig, Kleinliebenau came to the municipality of Bienitz in 1994 and after its dissolution on January 1, 2000, to the city of Schkeuditz.

church

Southwest view of the church

A parish homestead belonged to the church mentioned in 1309 until the Thirty Years' War , which was not rebuilt after the destruction. In 1706 the church received a new steeple .

As a result of a fire, it was rebuilt in 1785 with the east tower, an interior and exterior renovation took place in 1889. During the First World War, the two bells and the organ's prospect pipes were donated as metal .

After the Second World War, the necessary renovations were not carried out and the dilapidated patronage had to be demolished in 1956. In the seventies, the last services took place in the church, which had long been a branch church of Horburg .

In 2005, the city of Schkeuditz sold the church from municipal property for a symbolic price of one euro to a Leipzig religion teacher, who transferred the rights of use to the culture and pilgrimage association Kleinliebenau founded in the same year. In the years 2007 to 2012, he carried out extensive interior and exterior renovations, which ended with the organ consecration on December 23, 2012.

Almost all of the interior furnishings are from the time of the reconstruction in 1785, and there is an epitaph from the Thirty Years' War on the southern inner wall.

The association would like to maintain the manor church on the Ecumenical Pilgrimage Route as a place of contemplation and encounter with an extensive cultural offer.
