history

→ See also: History of the individual districts

Historically, the individual districts originally belonged to three different domains. While today's largest town, Prösen, like Saathain and Stolzenhain, was subject to the Saathain rulership , Reichenhain, Haida and Würdenhain belonged to the Würdenhain rulership , which was forcibly dissolved at the beginning of the 15th century and which became part of the Mühlberg rulership at that time . The Schradengemeinde Wainsdorf , on the other hand, belonged to the Frauenhain dominion in today's Saxony.

Saathain was first mentioned in a document in 1140 in a contract between Bishop Udo von Naumburg and Margrave Konrad von Meißen . The castle, originally called castrum Sathim , is one of the oldest known fortifications on the Black Elster. At the end of the Second World War, in April 1945 a deliberately set fire to the destruction of the castle, with numerous art treasures stored here and the old, extensive castle archive being lost.

Also in 1140 Prösen was first mentioned in a document. With the construction of the Elsterwerda-Grödel raft canal and the Elsterwerda – Dresden and Riesa – Elsterwerda railway lines , which emerged at the end of the 19th century, the place gained a certain economic importance and is now the largest part of the Local community.

In the smallest district of the municipality of Röderland, the Würdenhain , which was first mentioned in a document in 1346 , there was evidence of a fortified structure in the form of a castle or palace, as in Saathain, which was probably built in the first quarter of the 11th century. In 1370 the rule of Würdenhain was in the possession of the Roman-German Emperor Karl IV. The castle was destroyed in 1442 on the orders of the Saxon Elector Friedrich the Meek, as the vassal from Electoral Saxony had been guilty of breaching the peace and the territory was assigned to the neighboring rule Mühlberg. When the area came to the Bohemian nobleman Hinko Birke von der Duba through barter and purchase deals, the deed stated in the deed: "The Waell zcu Werdenhein should never be built on nor be built."

Haida , to the north, originally belonged to the Würdenhain rule . The place was first mentioned in 1349 as "Heyde" and was created in the formerly multi-armed river area of ​​the Black Elster around a triangular village green that can still be seen today. In the middle of the 19th century the industrialization of the place began with the building permit for a brick kiln and the construction of the railway line Węgliniec – Falkenberg / Elster . Traditionally, gravel and sand extraction has been of great importance in the village alongside tree nurseries .

Reichenhain , mentioned in a document in 1335 as "Rychinheim" , originally belonged to the Würdenhain rulership like Haida. The first written mention of the neighboring Stolzenhain comes from the year 1406. Originally, the village belonged to the Saathain rule.

Wainsdorf , located on Schraden , was also mentioned in a document for the first time in 1406 . At that time the village was owned by the von Köckeritz lords , but it came to Otto von Pflug on Frauenhain as early as 1425 and later to the Zabeltitz rulership .

The current districts of the municipality of Röderland belonged to the district of Liebenwerda until 1952 , which existed from 1816 to 1952 in the Prussian province of Saxony , in the state of Saxony-Anhalt of the SBZ and in the GDR . The administrative reform of 1952 created the Bad Liebenwerda district in the Cottbus district , to which the municipalities belonged until 1993 (from 1990 in the state of Brandenburg). Since then they have belonged to the Elbe-Elster district .
