history

The area around Frankenheim was settled after 600 by the West Slavic tribe of the Chutici , who u. a. Priestly inhabited. The founding of Frankenheim and Lindennaundorf goes back to the settlement of Franconian farmers in the Carolingian era. The street village Lindennaundorf was mentioned as early as 1050 in a document in which the place in Gau Schkeuditz was transferred to the diocese of Merseburg . Frankenheim was first mentioned in a deed of purchase from 1285, in which Margrave von Landsberg sold the court seat of Ranstete (Markranstädt) with 29 villages, including Lindennaundorf, Frankenheim and Priesteblich, to the Bishop of Merseburg.

In the period that followed, the three places belonged to the Hochstift-Merseburg office of Lützen until 1815 , which had been under Electoral Saxon sovereignty since 1561 and belonged to the secondary school principality of Saxony-Merseburg between 1656/57 and 1738 . The three places were almost completely separated from the rest of the Lützen office by the area of ​​the Altranstädt monastery , which belonged as an exclave to the Leipzig district office . The jurisdiction over Priesteblich lay with the Domsen manor (near Hohenmölsen ), which belonged to the Lords of Bünau . The Reformation was introduced in Frankenheim, Lindennaundorf and Priesteblich in 1538 as part of Albertine Saxony . During this time the main church in Priesteblich was connected to the churches Rückmarsdorf (Rigmarsdorf) with Frankenheim and Lindennaundorf (Nawendorff) to form a parish .

Through the resolutions of the Congress of Vienna , the western part of the Lützen district was ceded to Prussia in 1815. The three places Frankenheim, Lindennaundorf and Priesteblich remained with the eastern part of the office in the Kingdom of Saxony and were affiliated with the Leipzig district office. They were now on the border with Prussia. From 1856 the places belonged to the Markranstädt court office and from 1875 to the Leipzig district administration . On July 1, 1950, Lindennaundorf was incorporated into Frankenheim. During the district reform in the GDR , Frankenheim came with Lindennaundorf and Priesteblich in 1952 to the newly formed Leipzig-Land district in the Leipzig district . On June 1, 1973 Priesteblich was incorporated into Dölzig , with which the place came to the municipality of Bienitz in 1994 . During the district reform of the Free State of Saxony in 1994, the communities Frankenheim and Bienitz were assigned to the district of Leipziger Land .

The community of Frankenheim became a district of the city on January 1, 1997 when it was incorporated into Markranstädt. Priesteblich came to Markranstädt when the community of Bienitz was dissolved on January 1, 2000 through reclassification. Since then, the village of Frankenheim has consisted of the three districts of Frankenheim, Lindennaundorf and Priesteblich.
