history

Seal of the municipality of Neuleutersdorf - Zittau official authority from before 1923

After the fire at the Niederleutersdorf farmyard in 1777, the Rumburg rulers had the corridors of the Niederleutersdorf farm parceled out. The new settlers of "Dörfel" were mostly Catholics from the Rumburg and Warnsdorf area . This created the fourth and youngest political municipality on the territory of the Bohemian exclave Leutersdorf. Because of its favorable location directly on the Saxon border, the settlement grew rapidly and was called "Neu-Leitersdorf".

In 1830 "Neu-Leitersdorf" consisted of 52 houses. There was a school in the village. In contrast to the other three communities in the Leutersdorfer exclave, the residents of "Neu-Leitersdorf" were Catholics and parish to Warnsdorf. In 1834 all of the 250 residents of Neuleutersdorf were Catholic. As a result of the main border and territorial recess between the Kingdom of Saxony and the Austrian Empire on March 5, 1848, the Bohemian exclave Leutersdorf came to Saxony on March 12, 1849. Neuleutersdorf remained independent for a long time, only in 1922 did the community join Leutersdorf.
