Mining Museum Oelsnitz / Erzgebirge

Oelsnitz / Erzgeb. [ ˈŒlsnɪts ] is a city in the Erzgebirge in Saxony .

The addition "in the Ore Mountains" was first used by the post in 1883 to avoid confusion with the city of Oelsnitz in the Vogtland , although Oelsnitz is not exactly in the Ore Mountains, but in the Ore Mountains Basin.

geography

The city is located in the Ore Mountains Basin approx. 14 km east of Zwickau and 20 km southwest of Chemnitz . The place is on the Hegebach , a tributary of the Lungwitzbach and the Würschnitz , a tributary of the Chemnitz river .

Neighboring communities

Neighboring cities and communities are the cities of Lugau and Stollberg / Erzgeb. , the communities of Hohndorf and Niederwürschnitz in the Erzgebirgskreis as well as the cities of Lichtenstein and Hartenstein and the communities of Gersdorf and Mülsen in the district of Zwickau .

City structure

Oelsnitz aerial view
has 3000 inhabitants, an area of ​​6.57 km² and consists of the districts of Oberwürschnitz , Neuwiese and Neuwittendorf. The village was incorporated into Oelsnitz on January 1, 1999.

history

The Hermann Rudolph Fountain - a symbol of the city

At the end of the 12th century, the Knights von der Oelsnitz founded the village of Oelsnitz, in 1219 Rembertus de Olsnitz is mentioned by name. In 1297 an Apecz de Olsnitz was mentioned as a witness in a Regest of the Schönburgers exhibited at Lichtenstein Castle . According to tradition from 1368, the knight dynasty has a red diagonal bar on the right in a golden, damascus shield, covered with three silver balls. The helmet has a golden flight, which is marked with the bar of the shield. A chronicler known as the Pirnaische Mönch describes the Ritter von der Oelsnitz as "a merciless gang from the village near the long Lunckwicz". Parts of the popularly rightly so-called manor still exist.

The name Oelsnitz, originally a field or river name, is around 1000 years old. The name is derived - as with Oelsa - from the Old Sorbian olešnica , "settlement or brook at the alder forest" ( olša = "alder", cf. Obersorb . Wólša ). It probably originated as an orientation name for Sorbs who committed the then still uninhabited Ore Mountains .

Oelsnitz is first mentioned as a village in a document from 1386, and as a church location as early as 1286. In 1399, Veit von Schönburg bought goods in Oelsnitz, Mülsen and Dennheritz.

From the division of Leipzig in 1485 until 1547, the place was under two different sovereigns. The Grünhainische and the Wildenfelsische part belonged to the Electorate of Saxony of the Ernestines , the Saxon courtly part with the manor and the village of Lugau, however, belonged to the Albertines and their Duchy of Saxony.

The development of Oelsnitz was influenced by the Peasants' War and the Reformation at the beginning of the 16th century, by the Thirty Years War 1618–1648 and not least by the two world wars.

The most important course in Oelsnitz history began with the discovery of coal in the Lugau-Oelsnitz district , which was made by the Zwickau mountain factor Karl Gottlob Wolf in the area of ​​today's district of Neuoelsnitz. After Wolff's success, chroniclers spoke of a real founder fever, in 1844 six new mines with countless shafts were already being operated. In 1858 Oelsnitz was connected to the railway network by the " Chemnitz-Würschnitzer coal line ". From this, the Neuoelsnitz – Wüstenbrand railway branched off until 1990 . Between 1913 and 1960 the city was the terminus of the Hohenstein-Ernstthal - Gersdorf - Oelsnitz regional tram .

The development of mining did not only bring benefits. At the end of the 19th century sensational reports went through the world press: "The sinking Oelsnitz". The mountain damage caused by mining led to subsidence of more than 17 meters in some cases. Numerous buildings in the center therefore had to be demolished. Last but not least, this development also led to a restructuring of the inner city.

In 1913 King Friedrich August III visited the shafts of the coalfield.

In 1924 the municipality of Oelsnitz was raised to the status of a city by the Saxon State Chancellery .

At the beginning of the National Socialist era in spring 1933, members of SA Standard 183 brutally abused political opponents in the market square and in the detention cells under the Sparkasse . A total of 74 prisoners are proven. 42 of these were recorded by name.

The extraction of hard coal was stopped in 1971 and by 1975 all pits were filled. In 1986 the mining museum was opened in part of the “Karl Liebknecht” mine in Neuoelsnitz .

In 2010, Oelsnitz hosted the Saxony Day with 380,000 visitors. For this purpose, the market square was completely renovated in advance and larger and smaller event areas and open spaces were created in the urban area.

On February 2, 2011, the city of Oelsnitz prevailed in its second attempt after 1997 for the State Garden Show 2002 with its application against six competitors and was awarded the contract to host the 7th Saxon State Garden Show 2015 .

The garden festival took place from April 25 to October 11, 2015 - a total of more than 415,000 visitors were counted. The 15 hectare site, a former railway wasteland, will be preserved as a multi-use leisure park. With generously laid out plantations, sunbathing lawns, railway and water playground, skate park , nature trail , Kneipp facility and graduation tower , it is intended to serve as a leisure and recreation area in the future. The community and family park project received recognition from the Saxon State Prize for Building Culture in November 2015. In May 2019 the city received the Karl Foerster award for the excellent production and further development of the green spaces. In the entrance to the park, on the station forecourt, there is the “Black Gold” fountain , which reminds of the coal mining in the area and refers to the future use of brine.

The city has a city coat of arms and an official seal as well as a logo. The city's coat of arms is divided vertically, on the left a miner in traditional costume with "Gezäh" (tool), on the right three alder trees that "speak" for the Slavic origin of the place name. The white and green Saxon state colors and the red and white city colors are included. The coat of arms can also be found in the official seal. In 2016, the city council decided to use the word / figurative mark “Instead of somewhere in the city of Oelsnitz Erzgebirge”. The logo contains the elements: tower of the mining museum (outline), graduation tower (silhouette), recultivated heap (green color), brine (blue color) and coal (black color). It stands for a lively, green, dynamic city of Oelsnitz with an exciting history and numerous ideas for the future.
