history

The first written mention of the Moselle comes from a document from 1248 which mentions a manor house that belonged to Fridericus de Musella . This manor was owned by the noble family von der Mosel for several centuries and was divided several times. The first division of the property took place in 1441 with the split into the Vorwerke Obermosel and Niedermosel . Around 1552 both are mentioned as a manor . In 1558 the manor Obermosel was divided into the manors Obermosel I and Obermosel II . In 1559, when the Lower Moselle hereditary estate was further divided, the Mittelmosel manor was created , which was again divided into the Mittelmosel I and Middle Mosel II manors between 1663 and 1757 . The manors in Mosel were owned by the family until the following years:

1622: Manor Obermosel II (Upper Moselle lower part)
1744: Manor Niedermosel
1792: Manor Middle Mosel
1838: Manor Obermosel I (Upper Moselle upper part)

Town Hall Moselle (2016)

While the manors Niedermosel, Mittelmosel I and II and Obermosel II (Upper Moselle lower part) were in the Electoral Saxon or Royal Saxon Office of Zwickau until 1856 , the manor Obermosel I (Upper Moselle upper part) belonged to the Schoenburg family as a fiefdom of the Lords of Schönburg until 1878 Dominion Glauchau , Amt Hinterglauchau .

The part of the Moselle belonging to the Zwickau office was subordinated to the Zwickau court office in 1856 and to the Zwickau administrative authority in 1875 . After an administrative reform was carried out in the area of the Schönburg recession in 1878, the Schönburg part of the Upper Moselle also came to the Zwickau district administration, which unified the place into one municipality.

The Moselle is a two-row forest hoof village that has been characterized purely by agriculture for several centuries. Industrialization began in the Moselle with the opening of the Dresden – Werdau railway in 1858, at which the place received a stop. This was dedicated in 1875 as the " Mosel Railway Station ". Between 1885 and 1951 it was the starting point of the narrow-gauge railway Mosel – Ortmannsdorf (Mülsengrundbahn) and since 1893 the end point of the industrial line Zwickau – Crossen – Mosel , which has only been partially used since 1999. In 1865 the first industrial companies were founded in Mosel, u. a. a brewery, gravel and sand pits and a paint factory. Due to the increasing industrialization of the place between 1890 and 1914 there was an increase in housing construction and an increase in the population.

In 1952, the Mosel was assigned to the Zwickau-Land district in the Chemnitz district (renamed the Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ). The assembly plant of VEB Sachsenring and the cardan shaft plant were built between 1979 and 1989 . Between 1979 and 1982 the prefabricated buildings on "Karl-Kippenhahn-Straße" were built. Since 1990, the Moselle has belonged to the Saxon district of Zwickau, which was added to the district of Zwickauer Land in 1994 . The foundation stone for the new VW plant northeast of the town was laid in 1990. In 1992, the laying of the B 93 began in the local area of Mosel. Since then, the route, which has been expanded into an expressway, has been running through a tunnel in the Moselle. On January 1, 1999, it was incorporated into Zwickau, with the Moselle being part of the Zwickau district since the Saxon district reform in 2008.
