history
Erlau was first mentioned in a document in 1290 as Erllowe . In 1329 one wrote in a document tzu der Erlawe . It was used to describe a settlement in a meadow covered with alders.
1290 transferred Mgf. Friedrich von Meissen fiefdom in Erllowe to the monastery Buch , abandoned by Otto de Rochelizc and by the de Poscizc brothers . In 1329 Heinrich von Königsfeld determined that u. a. a regular income of thirty shillings from Erlawe , which he had bought from the abbot of the Buch monastery, should be returned to the monastery in the event of his death. 1349 Fridricus et Hermannus de Schonenburg domini in Gluchow with the village Erlow are mentioned in the loan book of Friedrich des Strengen . 1378 Erlow is also mentioned in the Registrum Dominorum with taxes to the castrum Rochlitz. A partially preserved correspondence between Kf. Johann von Sachsen , Hz. Georg von Sachsen and Abbot Antonius von Buch between 1507 and 1508 shows that the entire village of Erlau belonged to the Buch monastery at that time. Finally, in the Buch monastery inheritance book of 1548, it says: 43 possessed men, 5 of which are lendable to the Buch monastery. The others are responsible for the Rochlitz office, those of Carlowitz and others; it is so mixed up that this village has 12 lords .
The district of Beerwalde was mentioned for the first time in 1182. The document says: de silva quam Bero in possesione sua habuit - a forest owned by the Bero. It is almost certain that the village was founded by Bero, the gift of Count Dedos von Wettin-Rochlitz.
