history

church

The first documented form of place names dates from 1421 as oaks . The core of the local church is a Romanesque building with a late Gothic choir room (around 1517) and a baroque tower top (around 1700). It houses a winged altar, the oldest parts of which date from the 15th century.

August Schumann mentions Neichen in the State, Post and Newspaper Lexicon of Saxony in 1819 concerning a. a .:

"[...] belongs in writing to the Trebsen manor. […] Neichen has around 180 inhabitants (in 1802 163 consumers were reported) and only 6 ¼ hooves in good fields, but because of its strong meadows it can keep around 80 cows and 300 sheep. Here is a parish church , for which Zehda is parish and Ober-Nitzschka is the branch , [...]; she is under the Grimmaic superintendent, and the church's collators are still alternately the owners of Trebsen and Ober-Nitzschka, but that of the school alone. Neichen owns two mills on the Mutzschener Bache , and there is a strong manorial brick kiln here, as well as a tavern on the road from Wurzen and Leißnig u, which touches the village . s. w. Neichen is connected to Trebsen by a ferry (not on a rope). "

On July 1, 1877, Neichen received the “Nerchau-Trebsen” station (“Neichen-Zöhda” from January 1, 1928, “Neichen” from May 15, 1936) on the Glauchau – Wurzen line . With the opening of the narrow-gauge railway Mügeln – Neichen on November 1, 1888, the station became a gauge changing station .

In 1935 Zöhda (today part of the city of Trebsen) was incorporated.

On August 28, 1967, travel between Wermsdorf and Neichen was discontinued, and freight traffic followed on July 1, 1968. On June 1, 1969, passenger traffic on the Muldentalbahn was stopped, and goods traffic followed on January 1, 1995.

On January 1, 1994 Neichen was incorporated into Trebsen.

In December 2004, after a construction period of 4 months, the Muldentalbahn cycle path between Grimma and Wurzen, which mainly used the old railway line, was opened to traffic.
