history
16th to mid 19th century
Oberschmiedeberg emerged from a hammer mill , the first recorded place name form dates from 1501 as Hamerschmit .
According to a Turkish tax register of the same year in the main state archive in Dresden, a hammer mill was located here at that time. Two letters from the years 1525 and 1545 name a Hypolit Siegert as the owner of the feudal property. The hammer is also called belonging to the estate, which means that the landowners were also hammer mill owners. The work was a Zainhammer located about 200 meters south of the estate. In 1552 Hypolit received Siegert the Elder J. the fiefdom. His son, Hans Siegert, enfeoffed in 1573, is referred to in the Arnsfeld church book as Hammerherr in 1611. In the following years the company was mostly leased. It was not until 1847 that the heirs of the owner Karl Theodor Sigismund Frohs sold it to the previous tenant Friedrich Schmiedel. The hammer is said to have operated only weakly until around 1860 - the building complex has undergone renovations over time and has been preserved to this day. In 1820 August Schumann did not name a hammer at this location in the State Lexicon of Saxony. Concerning Oberschmiedeberg it is noted among other things: “It consists of a few houses with 40 inhabitants who keep 20 cows and 373 shocks are occupied. There is also a mill here; the place is parish to Steinbach. "
Before 1693 Oberschmiedeberg belonged to the Parish Arnsfeld . After the neighboring town of Steinbach received its own church building between 1684 and 1686, it became its own parish church in 1693, to which Oberschmiedeberg now also belonged.
In 1604 Georg Kohlreuter built a second hammer mill in Oberschmiedeberg south of the fiefdom mentioned, but this was not connected to the fiefdom. It was destroyed in the Thirty Years' War and lay desolate. In 1662 the heirs sold it to Gottfried Rubner, who repaired it and had a new blast furnace built. He received permission for this on the condition that the local blast furnace and the one in Schmalzgrube - Rubner acquired the factory there in 1656 - could only be operated alternately. A short time later this condition is withdrawn. Rubner leased the hammer to his nephew Christoph, at the same time his brother Josef was the tenant of the fief. The von Berbisdorf family also joined as owners, which resulted in a close economic connection with the nearby plant in Mittelschmiedeberg. After Kaspar Sigismund von Berbisdorf jun. Bankruptcy in 1739 was followed by von Elterlein - Hans August von Elterlein also owned the Mittelschmiedeberg and Schmalzgrube plants from 1773 - and in 1831 these were transferred to Eduard Wilhelm Breitfeld . In 1835 Franz Benjamin Salzer acquired Oberebst Mittelschmiedeberg. Due to a lack of fuel, the operation of the local blast furnace is said to have been given up in favor of the one in Mittelschmiedeberg before 1810, the entire operation ended around 1850.
Mid-19th century to the present
Oberschmiedeberg with its two hammer mills, the older Zainhammer and the younger Werkel, was an official property of the Electoral Saxon or Royal Saxon Office of Selva until 1856 . From 1856 the place belonged to the Jöhstadt judicial office and from 1875 to the district administration Annaberg . In 1896, the local volunteer fire department was founded. In 1946 it was merged with the Steinbach volunteer fire department. With the opening of the narrow-gauge railway Wolkenstein – Jöhstadt in 1892 Oberschmiedeberg received a railway connection with the stop of the same name. In 1905 the station was appointed station, from 1933 the station was again a stop and from 1967 only a stop. In the spring of 1982, freight traffic was initially discontinued, and passenger traffic followed on January 14, 1984. In the following period, the track systems were dismantled, the waiting hall was preserved and was restored after the political change in 1990. In 2001 the Preßnitztalradweg was opened in this section.
On January 1, 1949 Oberschmiedeberg was incorporated into Steinbach. As a result of the second district reform in the GDR , Oberschmiedeberg became part of the Steinbach community in 1952 and became part of the Annaberg district in the Chemnitz district (renamed the Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ), which was continued as the Saxon district of Annaberg from 1990 and was added to the Erzgebirgskreis in 2008. On January 1, 1999, the municipality of Steinbach was incorporated with the district Oberschmiedeberg to Jöhstadt.
