It is located in the Bober-Katzbach Mountains on the edge of the Hirschberg Valley in the western Sudetes on the voivodship road 365 from Jelenia Góra to Jawor .
history
In the 16th century, Tief Hartmannsdorf (as it was written at the time) belonged to the brothers Georg and Heinz von Elbel , who pledged it to Johann von Zedlitz and Balzer Reder. The latter sold his share on August 25, 1597 to Bernhard von Zedlitz. Tiefhartmannsdorf was one of the oldest possessions of the Lords of Zedlitz who lived in Silesia . A marble quarry as well as lime kilns and numerous mills also belonged to Tiefhartmannsdorf .
According to Pierer's Lexicon, the village had around 1,300 inhabitants from 1863; In 1939 there were 1,083. It was also the seat of the Prussian district of Tief Hartmannsdorf, founded in 1874, made up of the rural communities of Ratschin and Tief Hartmannsdorf and the estate district of Tief Hartmannsdorf. The old village church burned down at the beginning of the 19th century, it is now renovated as a ruin, the church tower is used as a lookout tower. Until 1945, the parish village belonged to the Schönau district of the Liegnitz administrative district in the Prussian province of Silesia .
lock
The first castle in Tiefhartmannsdorf was built by Carl Gottlieb von Zedlitz in 1728.
The lords of Zedlitz and Neukirch were the owners of Tiefhartmannsdorf until 1874. Only the royal master of ceremonies Baron Hugo Konrad von Zedlitz and Neukirch (he was the last of his line), who had taken over the old family estate in 1849, sold it to Count Ferdinand von Harrach after 25 years . He fundamentally rebuilt the castle in the village.
After Harrach's death, his son-in-law Christoph Johann Friedrich Count Vitzthum von Eckstädt (1863–1944), from 1909 to 1918 Saxon interior and foreign minister, was the owner of the palace. After the death of his son, the castle passed to Countess Ursula Vitzthum von Eckstädt , who lived in the region until she was expelled in the 1940s.
In the 1960s, the castle partially burned out. It was later privatized .
