history
Quetzdölsdorf is a place merged from formerly three villages (Quetz, Dölsdorf and Zeschdorf). In 1931 the municipalities of Dölsdorf and Quetz were merged to form the municipality of Quetzdölsdorf by decision of the Prussian State Ministry.
The place was settled very early, which is proven by Stone Age finds. The discovery of the Germanic princely grave of Quetzdölsdorf indicates Roman settlement .
Quetz, located to the south, was first mentioned on July 25, 1232, in a document from the Margrave of Meißen. In it he donated 3 Hufen Land in Quetz to the Altfill family, who already have property in Quetz, the Cistercian nun monastery Marienkammer in Glaucha (district of Halle) and reads: “Margrave Heinrichs von Meißen appropriation of three Hufen Landes zu Quetz, according to Heinrich von Altfill given to the virgin monastery at St. Georgen (in Glaucha near Halle) because of his two sisters admission to the monastery. Regest from the document directory of the nunnery St. Georgen zu Glaucha near Halle aS (printed by von Dreyhaupt Saalkreis I. p. 803 No. 9. “) In the north was Dölsdorf. It was first mentioned in documents in 1358 as "Tolsdorf". To the west of the Strengbach was Zeschdorf. It was first mentioned in 1449 as "Czestorff".
In August 1813 Napoleon's troops as well as troops from the Russians and Swedes marched through the town. From 8 to 10 August 1813 they camped around Quetz and Zörbig and celebrated a festival on August 10 on the occasion of Napoleon's birthday (5 days before his actual birthday on August 15).
Until 1815 (formation of the Prussian province of Saxony ) Quetz, Zeschdorf and Dölsdorf belonged to various Saxon and royal Saxon offices. Quetz and Zeschdorf were in the office of Zörbig , while Dölsdorf was an exclave of the office of Bitterfeld . From May 18, 1815, all three places belonged to the province of Saxony and the Bitterfeld district , which was formed soon afterwards .
Quetz was on the southern border of the Saxon office of Zörbig. When the town of Quetz was ceded from Saxony to Prussia in 1815, the history of the customs house at Quetz ended. It was located 1 km south in "Kneipe" (today part of the unified municipality of Landsberg (Saalekreis) and Schwerz ) and is called "Pusta" in the village.
On July 25th, 1847, a nationally very popular children's festival was held in Quetz. The initiator was the Quetz pastor Ludwig Hildenhagen , who founded one of the first Froebel kindergartens in Quetz in 1846. He found an occasion in the solemn service after the extensive reconstruction work on the church tower button. In addition to many teachers from all over Germany and over 130 children, Friedrich Fröbel was also involved in the festival as the leader of the event. 2,000 guests are said to have attended the festival.
Also in 1847 the foundation stone was laid for the first sugar factory in what was then the Bitterfeld district and one of the first in Germany by Heinrich Moritz Albrecht von Graevenitz. After a year of construction, it was able to start operating in 1848.
As a rural place, the community's prosperity and development have always depended on agriculture. Even today a total arable area of approx. 570 hectares is cultivated in the Quetzdölsdorf district. Small agricultural and artisanal businesses, often with a history spanning several generations, offer different, albeit few, jobs. Village life is calm and idyllic. Various events and festivals are offered by a football club, a garden club, a volunteer fire brigade, a kindergarten with its friends' association and the two restaurants. The association Land.Leben.Kunst.Werk enriches the former parsonage. e. V. with a variety of offers, such as tree houses, a high ropes course and a farm garden, the cultural life in the entire region.
On March 8, 2004, the Quetzdölsdorf municipal council decided to join the unified municipality of the city of Zörbig from January 1, 2005. The decision was preceded by a local citizens' hearing, at which the majority of the residents had spoken out in favor of integration.
Quetzer Berg
The Quetzer Berg has played a special role since it was settled by humans. Trials were held on the mountain, also known as Mettine, until the 13th century. In 1209 Eike von Repgow , the author of the Sachsenspiegel and the Saxon World Chronicle, witnessed such a negotiation.
At the negotiation "in Loco Qui dicitur Mettine" of 1209, the burgraves of Giebichenstein handed over their castle in Spören with the associated goods to the Nienburg church. The document of the negotiation that has been handed down represents, in addition to the first mention of the Mettine as Quetzer Berg, the first written mention of Eike von Repkow. The document is in the Naumburg Cathedral monastery.
Today the mountain is an area natural monument. The former quarries are wildly romantic to the visitor in all seasons. Wild roses, a species of orchid, chestnut, maple and much more grow on a total area of approx. 18 hectares. in the silence of nature. The place itself is about 90 meters above sea level and the mountain brings it to 112.6 meters.
Quetz Church
The church Quetz was built in the 12th century and demolished 1988th Part of the church (altar area) has been preserved as a ruin to this day. The nave was Gothic. The church tower was built in the Romanesque style. It showed six windows, which were divided into two round arches, which were supported by a column. The material used to build the church came from the Quetz quarries. The gable roof of the tower carried an onion-tipped lantern. The roof rider's weather vane bore the year 1754 and the initials of its founder, FAvM (Friedrich August von Möllendorf, Royal Prussian Lieutenant Colonel and hereditary lord and court lord on Quetz, Zeschdorf and Dölsdorf) as well as his coat of arms. In July 1903, the roof turret was broken off above the bell chamber. This was replaced by a new, stately tower helmet, designed by the district building inspector Elkisch from Delitzsch. A still existing bell from 1586 bears the inscription: * ECKARDT * KVECHGER * GOS * MICH * M * D * LXXXVI: SPES * MEA * IN * DEO *. This means that this bell was cast by the bell founder Eckart Küchger from Erfurt. The Latin words "Spes mea in deo" mean "My hope in God". This was a common motto of people in the 16th century and later. In 1882 two larger bells and a smaller one were hung in the tower. They were removed in the First World War (1917) and returned in 1919 re-cast. The church was used until 1968. At the beginning of 1988 it was decided to give up the church and shortly afterwards to blow up the tower to avoid endangering residents and visitors. The spire that was put on in 1903 is said to have been too heavy for the tower and caused cracks. The demolition took place on July 1, 1988. The rubble was pushed onto a piece of land in a westerly direction and used to fortify the bank of the village pond, which had been desludged in 1990. In 1992 a bell tower was built on the church grounds. For this purpose, the two bells, one striking bell from 1586 and another from 1882, were sent to Apolda for repair. The bells were rung with the help of an electronic control system until 2005. Due to the danger of collapse, the bell tower was dismantled in 2010.
Quetzer Castle
The Quetz Castle , designed by Hellmut Moritz Erdmann von Graevenitz in the classical style, was built in 1788/1790. In its unity with the park and pond, it is often an attraction for visitors of all kinds.
A description of the Dr. Holger Brülls (State Office for Archeology and Preservation of Monuments, Halle / Saale) outlines the castle as follows: “The Quetz mansion, which is located halfway between Halle and Bitterfeld and is essentially late Baroque, is one of the many stately aristocratic residences in the local region. Due to the remodeling carried out in the late 18th century by the architect Friedrich Wilhelm von Erdmannsdorff (1736–1800) in the early classicistic style, the manor house claims a significance that goes far beyond the narrower regional art history. "
In 1779 the manor Quetz came into the possession of the von Graevenitz family through the marriage of Luise Ernestines von Möllendorf to Helmut Moritz von Graevenitz . On April 14, 1788, the foundation stone for Quetz Castle was laid. Recalled a plaque on the west side of the castle ". Delighted who away falsehood full city, free resting under trees which he has planted" (Hellmut Moritz Erdmann von Grävenitz) The castle is a 11-axle construction and comparable to the Castle Mosigkau and with the Palais Dietrich in Dessau. The rear front - the so-called "Ehrenhof" is comparable to the Margarethenhof in Oranienbaum and the Oranienbaum Castle , you can see a three-axis, gable-crowned central projection, in which the outer windows are narrower than the middle one. This suggests that CF Damm has taken over the construction management at Schloss Quetz. The interior architecture was created in the classicism style by Friedrich Wilhelm von Erdmannsdorf. He is known for the Dessau-Wörlitz Garden Realm that he created .
The castle and the manor estate were passed on to the von Graevenitz family for over six generations. In 1939 the form of inheritance in the Familienfideikommiss was abolished by National Socialist legislation. In September 1945 the von Graevenitz family was expropriated as a result of the land reform in the Soviet-occupied zone. In the 1950s the building served as a kindergarten, a doctor's practice and as an administration building for the state-owned property (VEG).
In 1997 the Quetz Castle was acquired by Georg Riedmeier from the Treuhand-Liegenschaftsgesellschaft along with 360 hectares of arable land, the castle park and the Quetzer Berg. Since then, the owner has taken measures to prevent the castle from falling into disrepair and has preserved a large part of the estate. Since October 2005 the association Land.Leben.Kunst.Werk e. V. has its seat in Quetz Castle. With the help of European funding, a high ropes course was created in the eastern part of the park. It is the aim of the association members to restore the historic park according to the old model and to grow long-forgotten vegetables and grains in the garden. The last one could already be implemented in the last year.
