history

The hamlet of Misselwitz was first mentioned in a document between 1181 and 1224. Initially four houses were inhabited by four families and 21 people, two of which were farms. The name "Missel" is Sorbian and means family .

Misselwitz belonged to the Wettin office of Altenburg , which was under the sovereignty of the following Ernestine duchies from the 16th century due to several divisions in the course of its existence : Duchy of Saxony (1554 to 1572), Duchy of Saxony-Weimar (1572 to 1603), Duchy of Saxony-Altenburg (1603 to 1672), Duchy of Saxony-Gotha-Altenburg (1672 to 1826). When the Ernestine duchies were reorganized in 1826, the place came back to the duchy of Saxony-Altenburg. Already in the 19th century the place is counted to Kreutzen . After the administrative reform in the duchy, Misselwitz belonged to the eastern district (until 1900) and to the Altenburg district office (from 1900). From 1918 the hamlet belonged to the Free State of Saxony-Altenburg , which was added to the State of Thuringia in 1920. In 1922 he came to the Altenburg district .

On July 1, 1950, Misselwitz became a district of Tegkwitz through the incorporation of the community of Kreutzen . During the second district reform in the GDR in 1952, the existing states were dissolved and the districts were redesigned. Thus Misselwitz came as part of community Tegkwitz with the district Altenburg to the district of Leipzig , which since 1990 belonged to the district Altenburg Thuringia and opened in 1994 Altenburger in the district of the country. With the incorporation of the municipality of Tegkwitz into the municipality of Starkenberg, Misselwitz became a district of the municipality of Starkenberg on December 1, 2008. In 2012, 13 residents lived in the hamlet.
