Piskowitz is a district of the municipality of Klipphausen in the district of Meißen , Saxony .

geography

Piskowitz is located in the Meißner highlands between Wilsdruff , Nossen and Meißen . The village is surrounded by the other districts of Klipphausen: Kettewitz in the north, Sönitz in the northwest, Weitzschen in the southwest, Seeligstadt in the southeast and Taubenheim in the east.

The small, rural street village is located in the valley of the Gallenbach, which comes from Seeligstadt and flows into the Triebisch above Robschütz . In the east, the Piskowitzer Flur extends to the valley of the Kleine Triebisch . The town center lies along Miltitzer Straße, other named streets in the town are Triebischtalweg as well as “Am Gallenbach” and “Zur alten Schule”. The school, built in 1835 and later used as a kindergarten, was for decades the only house on the western bank of the Gallenbach. The larger farmsteads are on the elevated eastern slope of the valley, some cottages are between the stream and the road. There are three cultural monuments in the village (see list of cultural monuments in Taubenheim ). To the public transport Piskowitz is by the bus line 414 of the transport company Meissen connected. Gravel is mined in the Taubenheim gravel works southeast of the village .

history

The village was first mentioned in 1239 as "Bizcopiz". The name is derived from the Old Sorbian "Biskopici", which in turn goes back to the word "Biskop", German bishop . The place name means something like "settlement of the people of a bishop" and could refer to the nearby bishopric of Meissen , which has existed since the 10th century . Over the centuries, the name changed, among other things, via the forms "Piscopicz", "Pischkepicz", "Pischkewitcz" and "Piskewitz" to the current spelling. To distinguish it from the eponymous district of Lommatzsch , which is only eleven kilometers away, the official name was “Piskowitz b. Pigeon home ".

Around the village of Piskowitz, whose inhabitants earned their income from agriculture, stretched a 152-hectare strip of land similar to mining . Parish was and is the village after Taubenheim. Piskowitz was a Prokuraturamtsdorf . The administration of the place was incumbent on the inheritance and later the Prokuraturamt Meißen. In 1856 Piskowitz belonged to the Meißen court office and then came to the Meißen district administration , from which the district of the same name emerged. In the 19th century, the number of farms was reduced by merging.

Based on the rural community code of 1838 , Piskowitz gained independence as a rural community , but lost its independence on April 1, 1938 when it was incorporated into Sönitz. Its municipal administration, however, was in Piskowitz in the early 1970s. During the land reform in the Soviet occupation zone from 1945 , ownership of the largest four-sided farm in Piskowitz was distributed to 13 new farmers, and eleven small settlers received land. As part of Sönitz, Piskowitz came to Taubenheim in 1974, which in turn has been part of Triebischtal since the end of 2003. With the incorporation of Triebischtal on July 1, 2012, Piskowitz is part of the municipality of Klipphausen.
