history
Individual finds indicate humans in this area around 250,000 years ago . Germanic settlements and burial grounds emerged in the 7th century BC. Chr. With the migration of peoples the Germanic tribes in the 6th century left n. Chr. The area. Sorbian settlers advanced from the east. Slavic farmers and cattle herders settled and settled in the 5th century AD. They founded most of the villages. The round structure in the village centers can still be seen today. A new Germanic settlement and the first documentary mention of the villages took place at the beginning of the 10th century. In the 13th century, over 5000 people lived in what is now the area, about twice as many as now. The church in Kyhna dates back to the middle of the 13th century, the nave was expanded several times. Plague epidemics cost in the 14./15. Century many human lives. Due to poor harvests and high feudal taxes, many residents emigrated.
The place Lissa was created around 1630 by Protestant residents of the small town Lissa in Bohemia, who emigrated in the course of the re-Catholicization.
The present districts of Neukyhna belonged to the electoral office of Delitzsch until 1815 . As a result of the resolutions of the Congress of Vienna , the towns became part of Prussia and in 1816 they were assigned to the Delitzsch district in the Merseburg administrative district of the province of Saxony , to which they belonged until 1952. In the course of the district reform in the GDR in 1952, they were assigned to the newly tailored Delitzsch district in the Leipzig district, which was added to the Delitzsch district in 1994 .
At the beginning of the 19th century there was an organized cultivation of sugar beet, wheat, barley, potatoes and fodder plants. The fertile soil of the area and progress in cultivation methods brought high yields. Large farms and manors changed the appearance of the village. The large chemical companies in the neighboring cities created many jobs in the 20th century. The villages increasingly became the homes of industrial workers. From 1970 the agricultural policy of the GDR took hold. The farms went into production cooperatives ( LPG ). Large livestock farms emerged. Large-scale lignite mining began in the Delitzsch-Südwest opencast mine in 1980 . The lowering of the groundwater level caused massive ecological damage in the southern local area. In addition, there was the noise from the nearby places Lissa, Kyhna and Quering. After reunification, open- cast lignite mining was stopped in 1990 . The environmental conditions became more pleasant. On January 1, 1994, the places Kyhna, Lissa, Pohritzsch, Zschernitz and Zaasch merged to form Neukyhna .
On August 19, 2003, during excavation work on the outskirts of Zschernitz, the Adonis von Zschernitz was found in a settlement pit of the younger linear ceramics . The torso of the approx. 7000 year old clay figure is clearly male . The approximately 8 cm high fragment has been preserved from about the navel down to below the buttocks. Based on the many Venus finds from antiquity, he goes down in archeology as Adonis . The male sexual characteristics are clearly developed, the penis and scrotum are completely intact. Male figures from this era were previously unknown in Europe.
On January 1, 2013 Neukyhna was incorporated into Wiedemar.
