history

Between 1156 and 1162 the area between Striegis and Freiberger Mulde was colonized with Franconian farmers by the Margrave of Meißen , Otto the Rich . Kleinwaltersdorf was first mentioned in 1230 as "Waltersdorp". Originally, the place belonged to the property of the Altzella monastery near Nossen founded by Margrave Otto in 1162 . With the introduction of the Reformation and the secularization of the Altzella monastery, Kleinwaltersdorf first came to the office of Nossen . In 1555, the Saxon elector August Kleinwaltersdorf lent 14 other villages from the former monastery property to his councilor Ulrich von Mordeisen . From his inheritance it came to the elector Christian I , making it part of the Freiberg district office around 1590 . Since 1624 the place was called Kleinwaltersdorf .

As early as 1360, by merging several farms, a Vorwerk existed in the village , which was called a manor since 1696 . The upper village with the church was subordinate to him, while the lower village as an official village was directly subordinate to the Freiberg district office. The lower village, known as the farming community , and the upper village with the church and manor, known as the gentleman's community , were only politically united in 1922.

Mining was first mentioned in Kleinwaltersdorf in 1581. Until 1897 there were six pits in which ores, u. a. Silver , were mined. To this day, two piles of light holes on "Lößnitzer Straße", which originate from the excavation of the " New Fürstenstolln ", are witnesses . He was responsible for the drainage of the "Neugeborn Kindlein" mine operated in the 16th century.

Until 1856, Kleinwaltersdorf was part of the Freiberg district office of the Electorate of Saxony or of the royal Saxon region . From 1856 the place belonged to the Freiberg judicial office and from 1875 to the Freiberg district administration . In the course of the land reform in the GDR , the mansion, rebuilt in 1836 in the classicist style, was demolished in 1946. As a result of the second district reform in the GDR , Kleinwaltersdorf came to the Freiberg district in the Chemnitz district in 1952 (renamed the Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ), which was continued as the Freiberg district of Saxony from 1990 onwards .

On March 1, 1994, Kleinwaltersdorf was incorporated into Freiberg . Since then the place has been one of eight districts of the city of Freiberg.
