Lehndorf , Upper Sorbian , is a village in the center of the Bautzen district in Upper Lusatia and has been part of the Panschwitz-Kuckau community since 1974 . Lehndorf is located in the Sorbian core settlement area about four kilometers southeast of Panschwitz-Kuckau on the road from Bautzen to Kamenz and on the Satkula stream . Most of the population speaks Sorbian .
The neighboring towns are Kopschin in the north, Nucknitz in the Northeast, Paßditz the east, Auschkowitz and Tschaschwitz in the south and Siebitz in the West.
history
The place was first mentioned in 1423 as the seat of a Behnis vom Lehin or Leyn . In contrast to the neighboring towns, the manor was not in the nearby St. Marienstern Monastery , but in changing manors and partly in the Bautzen bailiff. Since the 17th century Lehndorf had its own manor.
On September 2, 1877, Sorbian theater was played outside the city for the first time in the Lehndorfer Gasthaus.
Until January 1, 1974, Lehndorf was an independent rural community, since 1957 with the districts Siebitz and Tschaschwitz .
population
According to statistics from Arnošt Muka , in 1884 out of a total of 106 inhabitants, 95 were Sorbs (90%). Ernst Tschernik determined in 1956 that the Sorbian-speaking population was only 50.2%.
The Catholic population has been parish to Crostwitz since ancient times , the Protestant to Uhyst am Taucher .
