history

A place on the Saxon-Prussian border : Pilar couple 72 as a contemporary witness

Kleinsaubernitz was first mentioned in 1419 as Zaubernicz parva in a document. Thus, the place was mentioned later than the neighboring Groß Saubernitz, although according to current research, Kleinsaubernitz is the older of the two villages. For Kleinsaubernitz the place name forms Sawbernicz (1490) and Cleyne Sawbernicz (1504) are mentioned in the further course of time , in 1658 the place was first mentioned with its current name. In 1928 Arnošt Muka gave the Sorbian name Zubernička . Both the German and the Sorbian place name form are derived from the Old Sorbian word zubr for bison or ox .

The square village used to belong to the Buchwalde manor and as part of it was owned by the city of Bautzen until the Upper Lusatian Pönfall in 1547. After that, Kleinsaubernitz came into the possession of the Baruth rule . After the border changes after the Congress of Vienna, Kleinsaubernitz remained in the Kingdom of Saxony , but the border was now in the immediate vicinity of the village. After the Second World War , Kleinsaubernitz was in the Soviet occupation zone and later in the GDR .

On July 1, 1950, the previously independent municipality of Wartha with its districts Lömischau and Neulömischau was incorporated into Kleinsaubernitz. On July 25, 1952, the community became part of the Bautzen district in the Dresden district . After the reunification , the place was in the Bautzen district in Saxony . During the Saxon territorial reform of 1994 , Kleinsaubernitz was incorporated into Guttau and assigned to the then newly founded district of Bautzen . During the district reform in 2008, Kleinsaubernitz came as part of Guttau in what is now the Bautzen district . On January 1, 2013, the community of Guttau with its districts Brösa , Halbendorf / Spree , Kleinsaubernitz, Lieske , Lömischau, Neudorf / Spree , Ruhethal and Wartha was incorporated into the community of Malschwitz .

By 1871 the number of inhabitants in Kleinsaubernitz rose to 245, after which the number of inhabitants initially fell sharply, to 168 in 1890, before increasing rapidly in the course of industrialization through lignite mining at the beginning of the 20th century. In 1925 Kleinsaubernitz had 598 inhabitants, of which 571 were Evangelical-Lutheran , 23 were Catholic and four were of other denominations. After that, the number of inhabitants remained fairly constant, but by 1950 it rose to 961 inhabitants due to the refugees from the eastern German regions.
