history

Brunndöbra, Gasthof "Grüner Baum" before the demolition, in front of it there was a stop for the narrow-gauge railway

With the flourishing of mining for copper, tin, lead and silver in the mountain town of Graslitz, five kilometers away on the other side of the border with Bohemia , this expanded to the Saxon border region at the end of the 16th century, which resulted in mining in the forests around what would later become Klingenthal u. a. of tin and iron took place. Since the end of the 16th century, the valleys of the Dürrenbach and Brunndöbra were the most important mining areas in the Klingenthal region. In the area of ​​the Brunndöbra settlement, which was established in the 17th century, the following mines were in operation: “God's gift”, “Johanneszeche”, “St. Michael am Dannenbergk ”,“ Neuer Graben ”,“ Josephszeche ”,“ Eisensteinzeche ”and“ Herbst-Glück-Zeche ”. Furthermore, the pits “Christbescherung Fundgrube Vereinigt Feld”, “Drei Brüder Erbstolln and Fundgrube am Dannenbach”, “Drei Brüder Stolln at the old Pochplatz”, “Certain Blessing Stolln and Fundgrube at the Dreie” and “Divine Help Erbstolln” were opened in Brunndöbra “Operated. To smelt the ores, the “Hellhammer” or “Höllhammer” was completed around 1591, which is regarded as the nucleus of what would later become Klingenthal. This was first mentioned under this name in 1604 as a hammer settlement.

The settlement of Brunndöbra was created in the 17th century by the settlement of numerous Protestant religious refugees ( exiles ) from Bohemia, who left their Bohemian homeland in the course of the Counter-Reformation . They brought their abilities and skills in violin making with them, which made the region a center of violin making within a short time (see: History of violin making in Klingenthal ). In the 19th century, violin making was increasingly replaced by the production of harmonica and accordions in Brunndöbra and Klingenthal . The "Zupfinstrumentenmanufaktur Hopf" founded in 1901 exists to the present day.

Brunndöbra and its district Mittelberg were until 1856 in the Electoral Saxon or Royal Saxon office of Voigtsberg . After 1856 Brunndöbra belonged to the Klingenthal court office and from 1875 to the Auerbach administration . Around 1871/75 Brunndöbra had 1964 inhabitants and Mittelberg 125 inhabitants. In 1909 Brunndöbra got its own church. In 1916, Brunndöbra and Mittelberg were connected to the railway network with the electrically operated narrow-gauge railway from Klingenthal to Sachsenberg to Georgenthal . The five stations in the local area formed the middle section of the route. When the railway was closed in 1964, buses took over passenger transport.

In the first half of the 20th century, eleven pits north of Brunndöbra were in operation by resumption or renewal, in which there were mining experiments on tin, zinc blende and vitriol. They belong to the Brunndöbra- Schneckenstein deposit . In 1950, Wismut took over the "Stolln Brunndöbra". It was prepared to mine uranium , but was discontinued in 1960. In 2011 the corridors were renovated. Between 1966 and 1991 barite was mined in the Brunndöbra mine.

On July 1, 1950, Brunndöbra was incorporated into Klingenthal together with the neighboring Sachsenberg-Georgenthal to the north . As a result of the second district reform in the GDR , Brunndöbra became part of Klingenthal in 1952 and became part of the Klingenthal district in the Chemnitz district (renamed Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ), which was continued as the Saxon district of Klingenthal in 1990 and became part of the Vogtland district in 1996.
