The Saxon-Thuringian noble family von Osterhausen named themselves after the place . Groß- and Kleinosterhausen belonged to the Saxon office Sittichenbach of the Kingdom of Saxony until 1815 and then came to the Querfurt district of the Merseburg administrative district of the Prussian province of Saxony .
