history
Lungkwitz was first mentioned in 1340 as Lungwitz . In 1445 Lunckewitz was under the care of Dohna .
The document from 1445 proves that Heinz von Zschieren zu Lungkwitz has “11 Schock geldis and one gut vorwergk (Hermsdorf), struck with 2 horses”, in the Dohna nursing home. He receives the feudal letter in 1448 "... with obiren courts in measure his father had blessed them ...". In 1464 it says "... over wounded and living ...".
The manorial rule of the Lungkwitzer Flur belonged partly to the Lungkwitz manor , and partly to the Oberkreischa manor , which is documented between 1548 and 1764.
Administratively, Lungkwitz was also divided. From 1548 the first part was under the authority of the Pirna Office (left of the Elbe), while the Oberkreischa part was administered by the Dresden Office. From 1856 Lungkwitz was part of the judicial district of Dippoldiswalde, from 1875 of the Dippoldiswalde district administration . In 1952 Lungkwitz came to the new Freital district and in 1973 was incorporated into Kreischa.
Lungkwitz has always been parish to Kreischa. From 1859 to 1973 the place had its own school system, to which the neighboring Wittgensdorf also belonged.
The war memorial from the First World War , which was secretly recovered after 1945 and restored in the 1990s, was rededicated on November 14, 1997 on the old square in the center of the village. It is a reminder and reminder of those who fell in both world wars.
Lungkwitz Castle and Abbey
The Lungkwitz Palace and Abbey at the northern exit of Lungkwitz emerged from an old moated castle that was built before 1445. The complex includes several larger buildings grouped around an elongated courtyard.

The oldest building is the old manor house (now known as the tower barn ), which was built around 1550. Probable builders are Hans von Carlowitz auf Abschendorf (1547) or Hans von Zschieren (1551). The house contained stables on the ground floor and stately apartments on the upper floor. On the courtyard side there is a stair tower with a Welscher hood and a pointed lantern.
The palace building was built between 1619 and 1621 under Peter von Zschieren on the northwest corner of the manor as a Renaissance building and was originally surrounded by moats. It consists of two orthogonally aligned building wings that are connected by a stair tower. The building has gable roofs and decorative gables .
In 1724 the estate was given to the Saxon court and judiciary Dr. Johann Christian Bennemann sold. After his death it passed to his widow Christiane Bennemann, who converted it into a charitable foundation in 1760. This Bennemann Foundation included the establishment of an old people's foundation for eighteen impoverished Evangelical widows or virgins from a higher class and of honorable origin over the age of 50. Their apartments were set up in the castle.
Opposite the castle, the widow's monastery was built in 1842 with small apartments, dining vaults, communal kitchen and laundry room. The building has two seating portals made of sandstone.
The property also included the administrator's house (1832), an elongated stable building (1882) and a richly designed garden, which was transformed into an English landscape park from 1831.
The estate with over 400 hectares of land fell under the land reform in the Soviet Zone in 1945/46 and was transferred to the Lungkwitz community in the land registry. The castle building and parts of the ancillary facilities have since been used for apartments, but were partially empty after 1990 and fell into disrepair. In 1993, as part of an emergency backup, the tower hood of the old manor house was removed and stored in the courtyard.
Since 2011 the building complex has been renovated in sections for residential purposes. The old manor house and the widow's monastery have already been completed. The stair tower of the old mansion received its tower hood back. The actual castle building was renovated by the end of 2014.
Lungkwitzer Promenaden

The manor owners always attached particular importance to the maintenance of the promenades, known today as the "Lungkwitzer facilities". These are located on the slope east of the Lungwitzbach. Christiane Bennemann stipulated in her will that the forester should "maintain them well and carefully supervise the beautiful forests". It was kept like this until the land reform. Then they fell into disrepair. Not visible from a distance, winding, shady paths invite you to take a quiet walk. They used to have benches and even a small stage from which one had a magnificent view of the Lungkwitz valley. The numerous bark and stem bows have become famous. In the straw temple - almost on the Saidaer Höhe - Robert Schumann drank the eggnog with his Clara .
The lower path contains a geological and historical curiosity on the slope: the five soldiers' caves. The cavities were used for storage purposes (including pouring openings for winter ice for cooling in spring and summer). In spring 1997 the underground objects were cleared out by ABM forces. The adjacent lower path was also paved.
