history

While the incorporated districts can look back on more than 500 years of history, the history of Neukieritzsch is closely linked to the construction of the Saxon-Bavarian Railway . This opened its first line section Leipzig – Altenburg in 1842 , at which today's Neukieritzsch station was initially the only stopover. At that time, this station was in the open, about three kilometers from the villages of Kieritzsch, Pürsten and Breunsdorf. Although the area of ​​the station was still part of the district of Pürsten , the station was named Kieritzsch, as Pürsten and Kahnsdorf refused to be named after their location. The connecting lines to Borna ( extended to Chemnitz in 1872 ) and in 1909 to Pegau were built from this station . With this position as a railway junction, the newly created settlement around the station, which has now been equipped with a new station building, grew rapidly. The newly built factories in the immediate vicinity, such as B. a sugar beet factory , which was built around 1850 and which became a wool laundry in 1864, as well as the lignite union Breunsdorf founded in 1901 with its headquarters south of the train station, contributed to this development.

Entrance to Neukieritzsch with opencast mining finds

Since the Ruhr area was under French occupation after the First World War on the basis of the Versailles Treaty and thus Germany's supply of hard coal was severely impaired, the state now subsidized lignite mining, which was particularly beneficial to the Central German lignite mining area . In addition to newly created settlements for the miners, the Kieritzsch station was expanded into an important marshalling yard.

After the towns of Kahnsdorf, Pürsten and Zöpen, located east of the railway line, merged to form the new municipality of Kahnsdorf in 1934 , the need arose for an administrative reorganization of the settlement, which has now grown strongly to the west of the station. Thereupon the NS - Reich governor for Saxony , Martin Mutschmann , determined the formation of the new community Neukieritzsch on November 1st, 1935 . In 1936 the station also took on the name of the new location.

In the years that followed, both during and after the Second World War , new industrial operations were built in the area, such as the Lippendorf ferro-alloy plant in 1941/1942 and the Lippendorf power plant from 1963 . The Böhlen chemical works (now part of Dow Chemical ) also expanded. This created a need for new living space, on the one hand for the new workforce and on the other hand for the people who had previously lived on the premises of the new companies. As a result, new residential areas were built in the south and north of the town in the 1960s. The eastern area of ​​Neukieritzsch fell victim to lignite mining by the Witznitz II opencast mine between 1952 and 1957 . 190 residents were affected by the resettlement. In 1958 the connection road to Kahnsdorf was cut. Shortly before, Kahnsdorf, Zöpen and Pürsten were also separated from Neukieritzsch with the settlement at the train station with regard to the administration, and from January 1, 1957 they again formed an independent municipality of Kahnsdorf, which was again incorporated into Lobstädt in 1994 and incorporated into Neukieritzsch in 2008 District of Neukieritzsch became.
