Kleinradmeritz was first mentioned as Radmariz in 1261 in a document that is now in the cathedral monastery archive in Bautzen . The village, which consisted of several districts and was founded by Slavic settlers, was a mansion from 1402 and was owned by various noble families as a fiefdom of the Bohemian king. a. of the Lords of Kittlitz and of Nostitz . In terms of the type of settlement, the place is a manor settlement with an older round village center . In 1430 Kleinradmeritz was almost completely devastated by the Hussites .
In 1581 the Kleinradmeritzer Herrengut was elevated to a manor and remained the center of village life until 1945. Agriculture was of particular economic importance. There was also a watermill on Löbauer Wasser and a windmill on the edge of the castle park. In addition, there were some independent craftsmen who were important for village life. From 1434, the owner of the manor was the von Gersdorff family, which had extensive branches in Upper Lusatia . Ecclesiastically, Kleinradmeritz belongs to the Kittlitz Church.
In 1794 Kleinradmeritz came to the noble Karl Florian von Thielau and his descendants, who sold the manor in 1849 to Grand Duchess Maria Pawlowna of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach . Until the dissolution of the family foundation in 1913 the manor Kleinradmeritz formed together with the outworks Buda, Fritzkau, Opole and Kalckreutschen Good one Fideikommiss the Grand Ducal family. The place received a rail connection on August 1, 1895 with the opening of the now closed branch line Löbau – Weißenberg . Passenger and freight traffic was stopped on May 27, 1972.
In 1945 the manor was dissolved in the course of the land reform and its land was distributed to local farmers and resettlers. Starting in 1948, some new buildings were built on today's Zoblitzer Straße for the residents who were expelled from the Silesian town of Seichau (today Sichów). On March 1, 1994, Kleinradmeritz became part of Kittlitz and, together with it, was incorporated into Löbau in 2003, where it now forms one of 32 districts.
language
Sorbian was also spoken in Kleinradmeritz until the late 19th century . Arnošt Muka determined a population of 194 in 1884/85, including 174 Germans and 20 Sorbs (10%). These spoke the now extinct Löbauer dialect . In 1956 Ernst Tschernik counted a Sorbian-speaking population of only 1.5% or a total of five speakers.
Districts
Today's place Kleinradmeritz originally consisted of several districts, which later partially grew together to form a settlement.
- Buda : The settlement, first mentioned in 1454 as Botha (= hut), was north of the confluence of the Rosenhainer water in the Löbauer water and originally consisted of only one single estate. In 1511 the place was named Buden and in 1603 it was designated as a manor, in the 18th century as the Vorwerk of the Kleinradmeritz manor.
- Fritzkau : The settlement between Bellwitzer Strasse and Löbauer Wasser consisted of only one single estate and was first mentioned in 1693. Between 1650 and 1664 Rudolf von Friczschkau owned the neighboring Buda estate, which is why it was also named Fritsches Gut. In 1876 Fritzkau came to the Kleinradmeritz manor as a preliminary work and from then on served as a sheep farm. The buildings have survived to the present day.
- Paschkowitz : The place mentioned in a document in 1430 as Passkewicz was north of Kleinradmeritz and is mentioned in 1469 as Baschkewiz and in 1541 as Paskewitz . The settlement, which only consists of a few small farms, was mentioned for the last time in 1563 and was incorporated into the Radmeritzer Flur a little later. Paschkowitz is still reminiscent of the 227-meter-high Petschkenberg, located on the road to Melaune. There are also some boundary stones of the state border between Saxony and Prussia established in 1815 as a result of the Congress of Vienna .
- Hasenberg : The small settlement borders the Kleinradmeritz town center to the west, but belongs to the Glossener Flur .
Attractions
- Kleinradmeritz Castle was built as a mansion for the local manor. The building, a simple two-story house, is 32 meters long and is covered by a hipped roof. It was given its present form during a renovation around 1815. The palace also has a farm yard and a small park. The castle, which was last owned by the Günther family until 1945, served as a municipal office, day-care center and cinema during the GDR era and also housed a communal kitchen and a sales point. Since 2002 it has belonged to the Barons von Lüdinghausen-Wolff and is used as a residential building.
- Horse grave : Outside the village there is a curious horse grave at the junction of the country roads to Zoblitz and Goßwitz. The memorial with an inscription plaque was created in 1868 in memory of the riding horse of the Kleinradmeritz knight landlord Rossberg.
