history

Krostitz is first mentioned as a manor in 1349. In 1534, Duke Georg von Sachsen granted his faithful Hans Wahl brewing rights on the manor in Crostitz . During the Thirty Years' War in 1631 Gustav II Adolf King of Sweden stayed as a guest at the manor in Krostitz and, according to legend, was enthusiastic about the beer brewed here.

The places Groß- and Klein-Krostitz belonged to the electoral office of Delitzsch until 1815 . As a result of the resolutions of the Congress of Vienna , both places became part of Prussia and in 1816 were assigned to the Delitzsch district in the Merseburg administrative district of the province of Saxony , to which they belonged until 1952. Before 1925 the union of Groß- and Klein-Krostitz to the municipality of Krostitz took place. On April 1, 1939 Hohenleina was incorporated into the municipality of Krostitz. Lehelitz, Nieder Ossig and Pröttitz were added on July 1, 1950.

In the course of the district reform in the GDR in 1952, Krostitz was assigned to the newly tailored Delitzsch district in the Leipzig district, which was added to the Delitzsch district in 1994 . On March 1, 1994, Krensitz and Mutschlena became districts of Krostitz. The former parish priests with the place Kupsal recorded on July 1, 1950 was incorporated on January 1, 1997. Kletzen-Zschölkau, which was merged with Kletzen, Zschölkau, Hohenossig and Beuden on January 1, 1994, followed on January 1, 1999.

The village church of St. Laurentius in Krostitz was built from field stones in the late Romanesque style between 1206 and 1208 . Around 1500 it was extensively rebuilt, so the collapsed church tower was rebuilt in its current form and in 1504 the chancel was added. The tower dome dates from 1678. After the end of the Thirty Years War , the church was the only remaining building in the village. The current baroque altar dates from 1705 and was made by a master from Eilenburg, the pulpit, which is also baroque, dates from 1726 and was made in Taucha. In the tower of the church, with its "Welschen" dome and its double points, there are two bells that originally date from the 16th century and a third bell, which - financed by donations - returned to its old location a few years ago. During the First and Second World Wars, some bells were melted down into war material. In 1928 the first bell could be replaced. In this case, too, this was only possible through donations from the population. The church was renovated in the 1980s and 1990s.

A memorial plaque on the opposite rectory reminds us that the pastor Zachäus Faber, who in 1601 created the song Happy We All Began , worked in Krostitz.
