history
Neuwalde was probably created at the beginning of the 17th century on the Leutersdorf exclave belonging to the Bohemian rule of Rumburg . The name of the settlement is derived from "New World". It was first mentioned in a document in 1718 when Prince Wenzel von Liechtenstein raised the Rumburg rule to entails . At the end of the 19th century, Anton Palme's band of robbers, and later Johannes Karasek, used the exclave from their quarters. After Karasek's arrest, the Neuwald court cricket "Kreibichschänke" was demolished as a deterrent.
In 1830 the irregular house demolition in Neuwalde consisted of 12 houses. Its residents were Evangelical Lutheran and performed their services in Oberleutersdorf, Saxony. 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 and the municipality of Niederleutersdorf was formed from it. In 1907 the communities Niederleutersdorf, Oberleutersdorf and Josephsdorf were united to form a rural community of Leutersdorf.
Today there are several wind turbines on the Wacheberg.

Companies
Greibichschenke
The Greibichschenke was located in the southern part of Neuwalde in Leitenbachgrund on the way to Neuleutersdorf and served as a courtroom. It was named after the landlord Johann Georg Greibich. At the end of the 18th century, the tavern was the hideout of the band of robbers of the imperial and royal deserter Anton Palme, who were active in the Saxon-Bohemian border area. Johannes Nepomuk Karasek from Prague , who had also deserted from the Imperial and Royal Army, became a member of the gang in 1795. In Neuwalde he met the landlord's attractive sister, Maria Magdalena. Both married on September 27, 1795 in the Catholic Hofkirche in Dresden , and their daughter Veronika was born on January 2, 1797. After the robber captain Palme was slain in a failed burglary at the canvas dealer Kühnel in Niederoderwitz in 1797 , Karasek was elected the new leader of the gang on the condition that he would no longer undertake raids in his own territory. For several years the Karasek gang successfully broke into the southern part of Upper Lusatia . He himself lived in Neuwalde and dressed as a hunter.
When the gang became active again in the immediate vicinity for the first time on the night of July 31st to August 1st, 1800 and broke into the manor owner Glathe in Oberleutersdorf in Saxony and lost part of the booty on their flight to the Greibichschenke, Saxon dragoons were able to take the Take up the track leading to Neuwalde. Karasek was finally arrested in Seifhennersdorf and interrogated for several days in the Oberleutersdorf Courthouse. He was later sentenced to death in Bautzen. To deter other robbers, the Kreibichschenke was demolished on May 11, 1804.
Karasek tavern
The Karasekschenke was originally the house of the forest manager of the manor Oberleutersdorf and stood outside the Bohemian exclave. The forester's house was built in 1703. Between 1898 and 1969 the "Forsthaus Neuwalde" was run as an inn. After a long period of closure, the restaurant reopened in 1998 following reconstruction measures. In December 2014, the popular excursion restaurant was closed for health reasons, and it was reopened in 2016.
