history

Groß Kölzig, Jerischke, Jocksdorf, Klein Kölzig and Preschen belonged to the Sorau district in the Prussian province of Brandenburg since 1816 and to the Forst district in the GDR district of Cottbus from 1952 . Since 1993 the places have been in the Brandenburg district of Spree-Neisse.

The community was created on December 31, 2001 from the voluntary amalgamation of the previously independent communities Groß Kölzig, Jerischke, Jocksdorf, Klein Kölzig and Preschen.

Sorbian roots

As in the whole of Lusatia, most place names in the community are of Sorbian origin. The place name Kölzig describes a pile settlement (from nso. "Koł"), the name of Jerischke goes back to the personal name "Jarosław". The meaning of the place name von Raden, which is also derived from the Sorbian language, is unclear, it goes back either to a personal name or to the Sorbian word for “happy”. The place name of Gosda II describes a settlement in the dry forest. The name Bahren comes from the Sorbian word for ram and the place name of Zelz comes from the word “sedlo” for settlement.
