Geography and transport links

The place is northeast of the core town of Hartha on the county road K 7541. The B 175 runs east and south. The Staupenbach , a left tributary of the Freiberger Mulde, flows through the village in a north-easterly direction . It has its source on the southwestern outskirts of the village . The Freiberger Mulde flows to the north and the Zschopau to the east .

history

Nauhain was created in the 12th century as part of the state expansion in the Pleißenland . Various gentlemen were involved in the clearing in the Wendishain / Nauhain area.

In 1298 the district judge of the Pleißenland transferred the village of Nauhain with both courts to the Buch monastery . The monastery had bought it from Tunzold von Kaufungen . The Lords of Waldenburg , whose Burgmann was that of Kaufungen, waived all claims. Hugo von Wolkenburg also renounced his demands that he could have on Tunzold and took the monastery under his special protection. In 1299, the Burgrave of Altenburg once again confirmed the ownership of Nauhain and its history and fended off claims by the Lords of Flößberg , a sideline of the Burgraves of Altenburg. In 1302 Hugo von Wolkenburg again waived his claims after the monastery had paid him five and a half marks. So protection came at a price. In 1548, the official inheritance book of the Buch monastery in Nauhain names "14 possessed men, including 7 hookers, who are all loanable and interestable to the Buch monastery" with 12¼ hooves. Both dishes were at the monastery.

In 1465 the Pope granted a hundred-day indulgence to all those who visit the chapel in Nauhain and contribute to its construction, especially on the days of St. George (23.4.), St. Mary Magdalene (22.7.), St. Michael the Archangel (29.9. ) and St. Martin (11.11.), to whom this chapel is consecrated. It cannot be seen on whose behalf this indulgence letter was issued. Construction projects were often supported with such indulgences. In fact, the addition of the choir in Nauhain is dated around 1500. The chapel itself was always subordinate to the church in Wendishain. It is not clear when the monastery received the patronage. The four dates mentioned are classic pilgrimage dates for the rural population in times when the farm work had come to a certain conclusion. The two preserved processional poles still bear witness to this pilgrimage. Of the four named patrons of the church, to whom the pilgrimages were intended, only two can be found in the winged altar, St. Martin in the predella and St. Michael in the excerpt, so neither of them is in a representative place. St. George is missing in particular, of course, so that it is quite possible that it is actually a strange altar that was erected here later, especially since it appears quite small in the new choir. It would also be conceivable that the assignment of the Georgs patronage is based on a mix-up with Nauenhain near Geithain, where there is evidence of a Georg chapel, which was elevated to a church in 1334.

In any case, the church makes a much older impression. If you ignore the later extensions (choir and entrance hall), it appears as a tower, not as a hall church, and is not very suitable for pilgrimages with large crowds. The basement of the tower with its ancient groin vault and the Gothic portal is the space for the community. Originally the chapel must have had an apse, because the painting on the triumphal arch is older and does not correspond to the time when the choir was built. In addition, the former Piscina is located on the right side of the triumphal arch . The choir extension with its simple arched curtain windows is dated around 1500, the extension of the window on the south side is likely to have taken place in the 18th century, as well as the installation of the galleries, which can still be seen in the illustration at Gurlitt.

The altar is a work by Peter Breuer , dated 1504. In the shrine there is an Anna herself , with St. Erasmus with the bowler on her right , St. Wendelin with his flock on the left, St. Stephen and St. on the back of the wings Antony . Saint Martin and John the Baptist are depicted in the predella, the Archangel Michael in the excerpt. A connection between the depiction on the altar and the pilgrimage described is actually difficult to establish. Only the two procession poles remind of this. An artistic evaluation is reserved for experts.

After the dissolution of the Buch monastery in the course of the Reformation in 1525, Nauhain belonged to the Electoral Saxon or Royal Saxon Office of Leisnig until 1856 . From 1856 the place belonged to the Hartha court office and from 1875 to the Döbeln district administration . In 1936 the district of Nauhainer Haus von Wendishain was assigned. On July 1, 1950, Nauhain was incorporated into Wendishain. With this, Nauhain came to Hartha in 1994.

Attractions

The well-preserved winged altar from 1504, which is located in the parish church, was made by the carver Peter Breuer (around 1472–1541) .
