history
According to tradition, two miners started mining the copper slate on the Kupferberg in 1199. Around this time, the small miners' chapel of St. Gangolf was built with an attached hospital.
In the 16th century, Caspar Röder from Burgörner bought several plots of land on the Kupferberg from some subscribers of the Wiederstedt monastery and built a stately building on it. At Röder's request, the Counts of Mansfeld, in their capacity as patrons of the Wiederstedt Monastery, transferred to him the property and accessories built by him on the Kupferberg in 1539 as a free inheritance. When Caspar Röder died, Hans Reinhardt Röder inherited the property, who was enfeoffed with it in 1576.
Before the supervisor of the county of Mansfeld, Otto von Dieskau auf Finsterwalde , resident in Eisleben , Volradt von Krosigk appeared on August 13, 1584 with the request that he and the house and garden previously bought by Curdt Wolf Röder on the Kupferberg before Hettstedt as well as three wood stains in the Office to enfeoff Arnstein . The supervisor Otto von Dieskau gave in to Krosigk's request and enfeoffed him on behalf of Elector August von Sachsen with the aforementioned goods on the Kupferberg, which have since been in the possession of the von Krosigk family. When Volradt von Krosigk died, his widow applied to the superintendent on July 15, 1588 for a loan from Kupferberg. After her death, Kupferberg inherited her daughter Anna Sophia, who was married to Heinrich von Kampe.
In 1606 Christoph von Krosigk bought the Kupferberg estate from his sister and her husband. Hans George von Hoym bought the estate as early as 1618 and managed and managed it through the difficult years of the Thirty Years' War. A few years after the end of the war, in 1658, Georg Caspar Engelmann bought the Kupferberg estate. The following year he sold it on to Matthias Ludewig Wachsmuth. Even before 1700, parts of the estate came into the possession of the von Bussche auf Walbeck family through the Lords of Eltz, in which it continued for the next few decades until the higher regional court of Naumburg on the basis of Prussian legislation in the middle of the 19th Century remained.
