Village community center Mochau

Mochau was first mentioned in a document in 1090 in a deed of donation from Margrave Heinrich I von Eilenburg . Between the 11th and 13th centuries there was the seat of a Burgwarde , which, with four documentary mentions after 1100, is one of the most documented Burgward districts in central Saxony.

The place belonged, like its today's districts Lüttewitz, Prüfer (partly) and Theeschütz, later to the Electoral Saxon Office Nossen . Only Theeschütz was not a Nossen exclave in the Meißen district office .

The B 175 ran through the districts of Choren and Juchhöh in the south . The community could also be reached via the A 14 connection Döbeln-Ost (approx. 5 km). Until 1969 there were stations of the former narrow-gauge railway Wilsdruff-Gärtitz in the village and the districts of Simselwitz, Kleinmockritz and Beicha . These stations were significant during the beet campaign for the transport to the Döbeln sugar factory . The extensive auxiliary buildings of the railway are still well preserved, such as the station or reception building in Simselwitz . In Beicha there is a display system at the former train station.
