history
Local history
The place name and the shape as a round hamlet suggest that Quolsdorf was a Slavic settlement that was expanded to include a street village during the German colonization in the east .
Quolsdorf was first mentioned in a document in 1390 in a Görlitz town register when Nickel von Rothenburg bought Quolsdorf's shares in the court. Since 1479 the Ullersdorf line of the von Nostitz family had sovereignty over the village.
According to Hähnichen, the village was already parish in the pre-Reformation period, and it can be proven that it belonged to the parish for the year 1579.
The Quolsdorf manor has been verifiable since 1588; it held the manorial rule over the village. Intensive pond management on the part of the estate made the place famous through the Quolsdorfer tench and the Quolsdorfer leather carp . In 1737 it was bought by von Rackel . It came to von Milkau at a later date .
After the Second World War , the property was expropriated and its lands were redistributed as part of the land reform. The management was initially carried out by the respective farmers, later by the three agricultural production cooperatives (LPG) founded between 1952 and 1960 . The animal production was connected to the LPG (T) Hähnichen in 1972, the plant production was carried out by the LPG (P) Rothenburg since 1976.
The sawmill, rebuilt after the war, was nationalized in 1972 and operated as a state-owned company until it was closed in 1985.
On May 28, 1983, an elk that had probably immigrated from Poland was shot in the community forest.
On January 1, 1994, the communities of Quolsdorf and Trebus merged with Hähnichen.

In 1777, three possessed men , 18 gardeners and 25 cottagers ran in Quolsdorf .
In the 19th and 20th centuries the population moved between 300 and 500 inhabitants. However, while a 100-year comparison between 1825 and 1925 showed a 12 percent increase, between 1871 and 1971 a 3 percent decrease was noticeable. With around 500 inhabitants, Quolsdorf had reached its maximum population in the first years after the Second World War, between 1950 and 1970 the number then fell to around 400 and by 1990 to around 300.
Place name
Already at the first known documentary mention, the place name followed the current spelling Quolsdorf (1390). Later the place name was also written Quolistorff (1408), Quolßdorf (1518) and Quolßdorff (1569).
Due to the dissolution of the Sprottau district in 1932, an addition to the name became necessary, as information such as Quolsdorf ( Rothenburg district ) was no longer clear. In addition to Quolsdorf b. Hahnichen came to Quolsdorf b. Tschöpeln from the Sprottau to the Rothenburg district.
The Sorbian place name is documented in writing as Khwalecy in 1843 . The change from Kh- to Ch- seems to have taken place only recently.
The name probably denotes the place of a Chval , whose personal name is derived from the Slavic chvaliti ( Upper Sorbian khwalić , Lower Sorbian achwaliś ) 'to praise, boast'.
Personalities
- Heinrich von Schönburg (1794–1881), manor owner and authorized representative of the four Schönburg feudal lords in the first chamber of the Saxon state parliament, was born at Quolsdorf Castle .
- The family of the later writer and dramaturge Armin Stolper (* 1934) came to Quolsdorf in May 1945 and found a second home there “after much hardship and privation”.
