Langenbernsdorf is located in the west of Saxony and thus borders directly on the Free State of Thuringia . Langenbernsdorf borders in the south on the Wer dur forest and in the northeast on the Koberbach dam . This is fed by the Koberbach and the Erdbach, which flow directly through Niederalbertsdorf. During the GDR era , Langenbernsdorf was allowed to adorn itself with the title “Longest Village”. The extreme west of the community is already part of the Ronneburg arable and mining area .

In terms of time, the Vorerzgebirge depression is counted as part of the Rotliegend ( Permian ), the area of ​​Langenbernsdorf is part of the Mülsen formation if more precisely divided.

history

Langenbernsdorf was first mentioned in 1251 as Bernsztorff or in 1257 as "Bernztorff". The place is said to have belonged to this nunnery since the foundation of the Vogtland monastery of Cronschwitz around 1250. The incorporation of the parish of Langenbernsdorf into the monastery is documented only in 1302. This integration into the church was also confirmed by Pope Clement VI. in 1347. This feudal obligation towards Cronschwitz lasted until the Reformation . From 1952 until the reunification of Germany in 1990 Langenbernsdorf belonged to the district Karl-Marx-Stadt , Kreis Werdau and subsequently to 1994 the district Werdau .

Niederalbertsdorf was first mentioned in a document in 1349. Kleinbernsdorf, which was first mentioned in 1222, has belonged to Niederalbertsdorf since 1936. The same happened with Oberalbertsdorf in 1957, which was mentioned in a document in 1445.

Trünzig was first mentioned in 1313 under the name "Drunz", in 1533 it was mentioned as "Druntzig". Around 1550 the place was owned by the brothers Friedrich and Georg, nobles von Planitz.

In Langenbernsdorf 1556–1560 witch hunts were carried out: in 1556 Bartholomäus Gerngroß, pastor in Langenbernsdorf, was relieved of his office on charges of knowingly tolerating sorcery . In 1560, the old Kunzin got into a witch trial , was tortured and died in custody.

In 1801 Trünzig already comprised 90 houses, in which 550 residents lived. A water mill and a windmill (demolished around the turn of the century) and an inn completed the townscape. Trünzig consists of three districts: Walddorf (formerly Mansbachsche houses), Wolframsdorf (formerly Seeligstätter Waldhäuser) and Trünziger Waldhäuser (center). The name "Trünzig" is derived from this; it was formed from the root word "Trunka" Dreierdorf. After the incorporation of Wolframsdorf and Walddorf, Trünzig has almost all local forms that exist in this region. The town center, which forms a clustered village , Wolframsdorf a street village and forest village, as a spacious, scattered settlement .
