Location Ober-Neundorf in the city area

Ober-Neundorf is a district of the Saxon city of Görlitz in the district of the same name .

The village was an independent municipality until 1950 and a district of Ludwigsdorf until 1998 , and has been the northernmost district of Görlitz since January 1, 1999.

geography

The Waldhufendorf is located on the arterial road from Görlitz to Rothenburg / OL Ober-Neundorf, between Zodel in the north and Ludwigsdorf in the south, around one to two kilometers west of the Lusatian Neisse .

Around the land border between the two Görlitz districts of Ober-Neundorf and Ludwigsdorf, the flat land in the north is clearly separated from the hilly terrain in the south and the rather sandy soil in the Ober-Neundorf district gives way to loamy soil in the Ludwigsdorf district.

history

A coin of the Roman emperor Mark Aurel (161–180 AD) was found in the corridor. When Nuendorf was mentioned in a document around 1330, it is not certain whether it could mean Ober-Neundorf or Klein Neundorf , located southwest of Görlitz . What is certain, however, is that it was mentioned in a document as Newendorff in 1406. The demarcation by name from Nieder-Neundorf , which is around 11 kilometers north of Rothenburg, was not made until the early 16th century.

The rural village was dominated by the local manor ; the majority of the inhabitants were small farmers who worked on the estate.

In the part of the Congress of Vienna enforced division of the kingdom of Saxony had to Saxony in 1815 a large part of its territory to the Kingdom of Prussia cede. As a result, Ober-Neundorf came to the Silesian district of Görlitz in 1816 .

In addition to farms, there was a post mill (proven in 1775, demolished towards the end of the 19th century), two blacksmiths, a wheelwright and a bakery.

After the Second World War, the owner of the manor was expropriated and expelled. The lands of the estate comprised 253 of the 410 hectares of the town hall, including 100 hectares of arable land. During the land reform , the land was distributed among other things to new farmers and land arms. By 1960 three agricultural production cooperatives (LPG) were founded in Ober-Neundorf . They were later united with the Ludwigsdorfer LPG.

On July 1, 1950, Ober Neundorf, Nieder Ludwigsdorf and Ober Ludwigsdorf were combined to form the municipality of Ludwigsdorf, which came to the Görlitz district during the administrative reform of 1952 .

In the second half of the 20th century, Ober-Neundorf developed into a residential area, with work mainly in Zodel, Ludwigsdorf and Görlitz. After the fall of the Wall , a residential estate was built in the early 1990s.

From the Saxon district reform in August 1994 until the end of 1998, Ober-Neundorf was in the Lower Silesian Oberlausitzkreis . With the incorporation of Ludwigsdorf, the place came to the then independent city of Görlitz on January 1, 1999, which has been the district town of the district of Görlitz since the renewed district reform in August 2008 .

Castle Ober-Neundorf 2015

The castle was built in the second half of the 16th century with a T-shaped floor plan and still has incomparably rich sgraffito remains with strong northern Italian references on the facade; in its current construction it is mainly in the Renaissance style. Through his wife Maria Ludgardt Vitzthum (b) von Eckstädt, b. von Taube (born December 29, 1627) came into the possession of Christoph Vitzthum von Eckstädt , the important governor of Bautzen. His son Friedrich I accompanied August the Strong on his cavalier journey and later became his chamberlain. He and his father created the late Baroque Schönwölkau Palace in northern Saxony.

The Gersdorff family owned the estate and village for a long time . By marriage, Karl Gottlob von Anton , who was ennobled in 1802 and who, as co-founder of the Upper Lusatian Society of Sciences, played a central role in the history of the city of Görlitz, appeared as the owner. Here he experimented with his agrarian theoretical reform ideas, which he developed in extensive writings.

After the Second World War, Olga von Stein-Kochberg was the last owner to be expelled and expropriated. The castle is now privately owned by the Dahmen-Wassenberg family from the Lower Rhine, who are related to the von Gersdorff family and who acquired the castle from the city of Görlitz and want to develop it for adequate use.
