history
The place name goes back to the Old Sorbian language and means "place in the valley". The village was first mentioned in 1206 in the same document containing the first mention of Dresden as well as that of Potschappel and Wurgwitz . This document names "Arnoldus de Dolen" (Arnold von Döhlen) as one of the witnesses in the arbitration process of a legal dispute between the Bishop of Meißen and the Burgrave of Dohna over Thorun Castle . Over the centuries, next to “Dolen”, the place name forms “Dolin”, “Dalen”, “Dalan”, “Dolan”, “Dölen” and “Delen” appeared. In 1875 the village was finally called “Döhlen b. Dresden ”to distinguish it from five villages of the same name in Saxony.
The manor of Arnolds von Döhlen was located in a fortification built to protect the East German settlement next to the church in the area of today's Johann-Georg-Palitzsch -Hof. The parish was located between the church and the village green . As a church village, Döhlen developed into the center of the region. The later church school was attended by children from all the neighboring villages. The manorial rule was exercised by the owners of the Döhlen manor throughout the early modern period. In the 16th century, Döhlen had to pay various taxes to the landlord Hans von Grensing . In addition to other villages in the area, the manor was also subject to more distant places, including a part of Rähnitz in the north of Dresden. After the death of the landlord Alexander von Schönberg († 1801), the Saxon state bought the manor, which consisted of the castle and manor as well as the attached lands, which became the chamber property . The decisive reason for this was the lucrative coal fields in its sphere of influence, which were then combined with other mines to form the Zaucker or hard coal works under the direction of Carl Wilhelm von Oppel .
Up until the 18th century, Döhlen was the most populous village on the upper reaches of the united Weißeritz. When the road from Dresden through Plauenschen Grund to Tharandt was built from 1745 onwards, Döhlen stayed a bit out of the way, the new route led through Potschappel. From this point on, the central importance of Döhlen decreased, the population of Burgk, Potschappel and Deuben increased significantly more. In contrast to its neighboring villages, Döhlen also did not have a train station on the Dresden – Werdau railway line , although it also runs via Döhlener Flur. Even Carl Friedrich August Freiherr Dathe von Burgk and his successors were unable to decisively promote Döhlen.
However, in the 19th century, important industrial companies settled along the railway line, including the Döhlen glass factory in 1818 and the cast steel works in 1855, from which the stainless steel plant emerged . In both of them, over 1000 workers were employed at times. In addition, Döhlen became the seat of a local court . In 1880 the dilapidated Romanesque hall church, in which Otto Lilienthal had married two years earlier , was torn down and replaced by a new building in the same place until 1882. In the churchyard there is a memorial hall built in 1899, the Freiherrlich-Burgksche Mausoleum, a war memorial and a medallion for Wilhelmine Reichard, who was buried here . To the east of the old village center, Neudöhlen was built from 1890 onwards with two centers around today's Platz des Friedens on the border with Potschappel and around Neumarkt and Leßkestrasse on the border with Deuben. The Weitzschen desert was located in this area. The Döhlener Guts block corridor was about 387 hectares around 1900. In the years 1914/1915 the municipality of Döhlen had a magnificent town hall built, which after 1952 served as an administrative building for the Freital district.
On October 1, 1921, Deuben, Döhlen and Potschappel merged to form a common city. Since no name of one of the founding communities came into question for the city name, a naming competition was called. Here sat Freital ( "Free Valley") by the proposal Döhlener community representative Hermann executioner . In the 1930s, planned new buildings were built along Dresdner Strasse , including on Döhlener Flur. During the Second World War , the Freital steelworks in Döhlen played an important role as an armaments factory and employed numerous forced laborers . A bronze sculpture by Wieland Förster erected in 1958 commemorates them and other victims of National Socialism . The chamber property, leased until 1945, was expropriated after the end of the war. In the time of the GDR, the stainless steel plant expanded over large parts of the east of the Döhlener Flur. Among other things, Hüttenstrasse was withdrawn and closed to public traffic. It was only released again in 2000 as part of the new north-west tangent which relieves pressure on Dresdner Strasse. This had a very positive effect on the accessibility of Döhlen. In the old village center of Döhlen, which is on Lutherstrasse, some farms from the 19th century have been preserved to this day.

Economy and Infrastructure
The factory halls and parts of the mining areas of the Eder brickworks , which employs 56 people, are located in Döhlen . Other larger companies in the district are the Edelstahlwerk (approx. 700 employees, status: 2014) and the Freital glassworks (approx. 70 employees, status: 2010). The municipal companies "Freitaler Stadtwerke GmbH" and "Freitaler Wohnungsgesellschaft mbH" are based in Döhlen. Until 2011, the district was the location of the largest event hall in Freital, the Windberg-Arena . It was housed in an old factory hall of the plastic machine plant , which had to be closed first due to structural defects and then demolished. A business park is being built on the demolished area, and a technology and start-up center was built on Neumarkt in connection with this . In the early 2000s, a Toom chain's hardware store was opened on a fallow area next to the Windberg Arena, also after the demolition of factory buildings .
The state highways S 36 and S 194 run through Döhlen . Due to its location in the center of Freital, Döhlen is an important traffic junction for city traffic, here are the busy crossings between the roads to Dresden and Tharandt (Dresdner Straße), to Kesselsdorf (Wilsdruffer Straße), to Weißig (Lutherstraße) and the Burgk district or to Bannewitz (Burgker Straße). The Freitaler bypass road runs directly to the east of the town center in order to relieve the less attractive part of Neudöhlen from traffic on Dresdner Strasse.
The connection of the district to the Freital city traffic is ensured above all by the bus line D of the regional traffic Saxon Switzerland-Eastern Ore Mountains. This line runs from the bus station in Deuben through Neudöhlen via Schachtstraße south of the town center in the direction of Weißig. All other city buses (A − F) also pass through Neudöhlen. Bus line A replaced the Plauensche Grundbahn , which was discontinued in 1974 , a Dresden tram line that ran to the Hainsberg district . The Dresden – Werdau railway runs through the district in a southwest-northeast direction.
