Location of the district of Mansfeld-Südharz in Saxony-Anhalt | |
The district of Mansfeld-Südharz is a regional authority in the southwest of the state of Saxony-Anhalt . It was formed in the course of the district reform on July 1, 2007 by merging the former districts of Mansfelder Land and Sangerhausen .
geography
The north of the district is determined by the Mansfelder Bergland, the easternmost part of the Harz Mountains . At Ulzigerode , the area with the 291 meter high Mahnberg reaches its highest point. To the east, the Harz foreland joins with its almost woodless, flat undulating and varied landscape. In the west, parts of the southern Harz belong to the district, and here, the 580 meter high Großer Auerberg, is the highest point in the district. In the southwest the district closes with the Goldene Aue .
The six square kilometer Kelbra reservoir is located in that fertile lowland area . In the opposite direction on the eastern border of the district, seven kilometers east of Eisleben, there is the three-square-kilometer sweet lake, the second largest body of water in the district. Two rivers cross the district from west to east, the Wipper in the north and the Helme in the south . In the far east of the district, the Saale touches the district area.

Adjacent counties
The district of Mansfeld-Südharz borders in the north on the district of Harz and the Salzland district , in the east on the Saale district , in the south on the Thuringian Kyffhäuserkreis and in the west on the district of Nordhausen .
raw materials
Probably the best known raw material in the district of Mansfeld-Südharz is the copper and silver containing copper slate . This occurs underground in the Mansfelder Mulde and around Sangerhausen and was dismantled on a large scale in the past (see Mansfeld (company) ). After the less deep-lying areas were first excavated in smaller pits, the pits enlarged the more they penetrated into the deeper areas. After the end of the GDR, copper slate mining in the district had to be stopped due to inefficiency.
In the southeastern areas of the district there are larger bodies of salt in the subsoil, the leaching of which once led to the deepening of the Sweet Lake and the Salty Lake . Not far from the district border to Mansfeld Südharz there was a salt mine in Teutschenthal in the Saalekreis for decades that mined these bodies. Recently, however, residues have been filled into the mining cavities in order to prevent underground rockfalls.
What is less well known is that limestone was also mined in some pits in the copper slate area . Limestone occurs sporadically in the district.
At the Hornburger Sattel there are smaller uranium deposits that were explored in the early years of the GDR by the SDAG Wismut . However, due to the insufficient amount of uranium of a few hundred tons, mining was not worthwhile.
Near Amsdorf in the extreme southeast of the district there are lignite deposits containing montan wax. These are mined by the Romonta company in the Amsdorf opencast mine .
A wide distribution of fertile black earth soils in the Mansfeld region is very favorable for agriculture. There are also larger forest areas in the Harz Mountains.
ecology
The southern Harz karst landscape is unique in the world and of great importance for nature conservation and sustainable regional development. It is therefore partially designated as a biosphere reserve.
Protected areas
There are 27 designated nature reserves in the district (as of February 2017).
Historical development
In the course of the Middle Ages, several systems of rule were established in the area of the district. The county of Mansfeld had the largest share, including the cities of Hettstedt , Lutherstadt Eisleben and Gerbstedt . The county existed until the family died out in 1780 and then became part of Electoral Saxony or Prussia, in 1807/1808 for the most part to the Kingdom of Westphalia ( Saale Department ) and in 1815 to Prussia . Another family of counts ruled the west of the district from 1210, the Counts of Stolberg . The area of today's municipality of Südharz belonged to the county of Stolberg , as well as further south, together with the Counts of Schwarzburg, the places Kelbra and Tilleda . In 1738/1740 the county of Stolberg came under the rule of the Electorate of Saxony , which was replaced by Prussia in 1815.
In the far north, Sandersleben belonged to the Anhalt principalities, from 1918 to 1945 to the Free State of Anhalt. The cities of Sangerhausen and Allstedt were subject to changing rulers . Sangerhausen has belonged to the Brandenburg margraves since 1291 , became the property of the Duchy of Braunschweig in 1340 and came under the Wettin-Saxon rule in 1372 . The Saxon period, between 1656 and 1748 Duchy of Saxony-Weißenfels , ended in 1815 with the takeover by Prussia.
Allstedt was mentioned in 1299 as the bailiwick of the county of Beichlingen. In 1320 Allstedt was given as an imperial fiefdom to various mansions, including Mansfeld, Anhalt and Saxony. It was not until 1575 that the Ernestines exercised unrestricted rule over the Allstedt office . From 1815 to 1945 the area around Allstedt was a Thuringian exclave in Prussia (1815–1920: Sachsen-Weimar-Eisenach ). The rest of today's district, with the exception of Sandersleben and Tilkerode, had been in Prussian hands since 1815 as a result of the Congress of Vienna .
Of the Prussian districts that were newly established up to 1818, the Mansfeld Mountain District , the Mansfeld Lake District and the District of Sangerhausen formed the current district area. This division essentially remained in place until 1994, with parts of the Mansfeld districts and the Eisleben district , which had existed since 1908, forming the Eisleben district in 1950 , which was divided into the Hettstedt and Eisleben districts in 1952 . During the first district reform in Saxony-Anhalt in 1994, the districts of Hettstedt and Eisleben were merged to form the district of Mansfelder Land.
Population development
The State Statistical Office of Saxony-Anhalt published figures on the population development of the regional units in the district. The population figures for different years were calculated for the respective territorial status from 2014. In the data, a different development of the individual cities and municipalities can be seen. The towns of Sangerhausen and Hettstedt grew until the fall of the Berlin Wall, with the construction of new blocks at the same time. After the collapse of the GDR, however, they lost about a third of the population. The city of Lutherstadt Eisleben, on the other hand, has experienced a population decline since at least the 1960s. She lost about half of the population. In the unified communities in the former old district of Mansfelder Land there is a development analogous to Lutherstadt Eisleben: The number of inhabitants has decreased by around half since the 1960s. In the large unified communities of the old district of Sangerhausen, the population has also been shrinking since the 1960s, albeit less sharply than in the Mansfeld region.

economy
The district of Mansfeld-Südharz is one of the economically weakest regions in the state of Saxony-Anhalt. The unemployment rate in the district is above average in a national comparison of 8.7% (as of 10/2019). However, it has been falling for a few years. In October 2016 it was still 11.2%.
After the decline of copper mining and aluminum smelting in the Mansfeld area, new branches of industry developed: at Klemme AG in Eisleben and in Hettstedt at the Mansfeld copper and brass works (KME Mansfeld GmbH) , a successor company to the traditional VEB Mansfeld , jobs were created to a certain extent . Another traditional company, the MIFA Mitteldeutsche Fahrradwerke in Sangerhausen, had to file for bankruptcy in 2014 and again in 2017 after years of losses. At Amsdorf there is still the Amsdorf opencast mine ; Romonta GmbH's montan wax factory there covers 80% of the world's montan wax demand . In the wooded western region of the district, forestry is practiced, in the eastern half, however, predominantly agriculture. The Harz regions and the Luther cities of Eisleben and Mansfeld are increasingly benefiting from tourism . Location Marketing Mansfeld-Südharz GmbH acts as a contact for investors and settlements in the district of Mansfeld-Südharz.
Due to the mild climate for these latitudes, grapes are grown on the Süßen See for wines belonging to the Saale-Unstrut region ( Mansfeld Lakes area ). The main growing area of this region is, however, further southeast in the neighboring counties. Furthermore, beer is brewed in a brewery in Wippra in the Harz Mountains ( Wippraer ).
Future Atlas 2016 ranked the district of Mansfeld-Südharz 400th out of 402 districts, municipal associations and independent cities in Germany and is therefore one of the regions with "very high future risks".
