history

In 796, Bishop Berowelf of Würzburg received from Charlemagne a contingent of the Saxons expelled from northern Albingia . Part of Saxony was used, the country of the current upper and lower Saxony to make arable. In this way, eight Sachsenhöfe were initially organized by the Königshof Riedfeld . The places, which were soon divided into two groups (today Upper and Lower Saxony), are first mentioned by name in a document that was created in the period 868–900 as "Ad Saxones". In the 14th century the manor Waldsachsen was formed, which had lordship claims in Dettendorf , Eggensee and Obersachsen (Upper and Lower Saxony were subject to the Neustadt Bailiwick . While Upper Saxony had been firmly attached to Dettendorf since 1486 and belonged to the Dachsbach caste office , Lower Saxony belonged to the Neustadt caste office and came into contact with Eggensee). A moated castle, a cellar house, a castle farm, a brickworks and a pitch hut were built in Upper Saxony. In 1491 Upper Saxony, like Eggensee, belonged to the parish of Neustadt. Between 1502 and 1506 the manor came to Konrad von Lüchau (from the Lüchau family, which was already occupied in Upper Saxony in 1486. ) In 1525 the moated castle and the place were destroyed as a result of the Peasants' War . In 1707 city governor Bühl bought the still desolate castle. The remaining stones from the ruin were used to build his seat in Dettendorf.

Towards the end of the 18th century, Upper Saxony and Lower Saxony formed a community. In Upper Saxony there were 8 properties (1 castle farm, 3 houses, 2 small houses, 1 mill, 1 brickyard). The high court was exercised by the Brandenburg-Bayreuth city ​​bailiff Neustadt an der Aisch . The manor Waldsachsen held the village and community rulership as well as the lordship over all properties .

As part of the municipal edict, Upper Saxony was assigned to the Diespeck tax district, formed in 1811 . It belonged to the rural community of Dettendorf founded in 1813 . On July 1, 1971, Upper Saxony was incorporated into Diespeck as part of the regional reform .
