Langburkersdorf is a formerly independent village, which from 1994 belonged to the newly formed municipality of Hohwald and in 2007 became a district of Neustadt in Saxony in the Saxon Switzerland-Eastern Ore Mountains district .

geography

The village connects directly to Neustadt in the east. It lies between the Hohwald and the northern foreland of the Elbe Sandstone Mountains . In the south it is bounded by the Ungers elevation , in the north by the Hohwald, in the west by Neustadt and in the east by the Czech border. The Polenz and some of its tributaries flow through it.

Langburkersdorf is laid out as a Waldhufendorf . Over a length of about 5 km, the properties are arranged on both sides of Dorfstrasse. This structure is supplemented, especially in the western part, by settlement and industrial areas.

history

According to the Upper Lusatian border document, the first documentary mention of the place can be traced back to the year 1413 as Burghardsdorff . In the middle of the 13th century the place was settled by Franconian farmers and a few years later the manor and castle were built.

In 1994 Langburkersdorf merged with the communities of Berthelsdorf and Rückersdorf and their districts of Niederottendorf , Oberottendorf and Rugiswalde to form the community of Hohwald . Hohwald, in turn, was incorporated into Neustadt in Saxony as a result of a referendum on August 1, 2007.

Langburkersdorf Castle.

Langburkersdorf Castle, located at the western entrance to the town, has a history of many changes of ownership. In 1423 the manor was first named as the property of Leuthold von Luttitz, governor of Hohnstein. Georg von Wehse acquired the house in Burkersdorf in 1564. The foundation stone for the new house was laid in 1611, after which it remained in the von Wehse family's possession for a long time. Baron von Stieglitz acquired the castle in 1870 and used it as a hunting residence. 1906 visited King of Saxony Friedrich August III. "Burkersdorf Castle" with its huge entourage.

In 1925 the entire property was sold to the State Insurance Saxony. After major structural changes, they built a retirement home there. The manor supplied the Hohwaldklinik with agricultural products. It was a rest home during the 1930s and 40s. Between 1947 and 1966, the castle was used to carry out follow-up treatments for patients suffering from tuberculosis at the Hohwaldklinik.

In 1966 the “Council of the District” became the owner. In 1981 the castle began to be renovated. The outer facade was renewed in 1991. In 1992 the property was transferred to the state insurance company, and in 1997 it was sold to Schloss-Park-Entwicklungsgesellschaft mbH. In 2000 the municipality of Hohwald acquired the castle and the property. Since the incorporation of Hohwald in 2007, the castle has belonged to the city of Neustadt in Saxony.
