history

Lobstädt is first mentioned in a document on April 2nd, 1299. The current name Lobstädt was derived from the original Lobschwitz (Lobschitz, Lobeschitz). In Lobstädt there was a medieval moated castle, which secured the ford over the Pleiße and later developed into a manor . This was the property of the important Saxon noble families von Könneritz (15th and 16th centuries) and von Einsiedel (1586 to 1823). In 1823 the lobstädt manor came to the Gessner, Scholber and skull families. On November 28, 1855, the jurisdiction over Lobstädt, Bergisdorf and Görnitz , which had previously been due to the Lobstädt manor in the Borna district, was transferred to the Borna Royal District Court . In 1875 the towns were placed under the administration of the Borna District Authority.

The municipality of Lobstädt has been shaped by the surrounding open-cast lignite mines since the beginning of the 20th century, so that some of the surrounding villages were demolished. The neighboring town of Witznitz to the east was the first to fall victim to the Witznitz I opencast mine in 1941 . In the period that followed, the Witznitz storage facility was built from the remaining hole. In the north, five towns disappeared between 1946 and 1968 due to the Witznitz II opencast mine, while Kahnsdorf and Großzössen were almost isolated by the opencast mine. In the south, the neighboring towns of Alt- Deutzen and Görnitz disappeared due to the Borna-West opencast mine and the Bergisdorf district, which was only incorporated in 1948, due to the Deutzen opencast mine in 1951 . The youngest and still active opencast mine United Schleenhain destroyed the western neighboring town of Breunsdorf in 1994 .

1994 created by the merger of the municipalities Kahnsdorf (with Zöpen and Pürsten and devastated corridor of Hain ), Großzössen (with the devastated corridor of Kleinzössen) and Lobstädt (with the devastated corridor of Bergisdorf) the greater community Lobstädt that are part of the administrative community Neukieritzsch was . It was incorporated into the Neukieritzsch community on April 1, 2008.
