history

Church in Reinholdshain

Reinholdshain was probably founded around the year 1100 . Additionally appear in the local chronicle z. B. Raynholdshain and Relsen as place names. The type of settlement corresponds to a Waldhufendorf , built on both sides of the village stream, which rises in the upper village and flows to the Zwickauer Mulde . Already in 1542 the neighboring village of Kleinbernsdorf, mentioned in 1460 as “Pernsdorff”, was parish to Reinholdshain, to which it has always belonged politically. Regarding the manorial rule , Reinholdshain and Kleinbernsdorf were official villages of the Schönburg rule of Glauchau , and the Amt of Fordglauchau . After an administrative reform was carried out in the area of ​​the Schönburg recession in 1878, Reinholdshain and Kleinbernsdorf came to the newly founded Saxon governorate of Glauchau in 1880 .

As a result of the second district reform in the GDR , the Reinholdshain community came to the Glauchau district in the Chemnitz district in 1952 (renamed the Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ).

Until 1965, the towns of Reinholdshain and Jerisau were directly connected to one another by a path over a hollow bridge . The floods in 1954 on the Zwickauer Mulde completely destroyed the concrete bridge between Jerisau and Reinholdshain. The bridge was then apparently rebuilt, because this bridge connection between the two places still existed until 1965. Both parishes could therefore be looked after by the same pastor until 1965. In 1965 this last bridge over the Mulde was also destroyed by a flood and was not rebuilt afterwards. On January 1, 1974, the municipality of Ebersbach was incorporated into the municipality of Reinholdshain without its Oberwinkel district . Oberwinkel was reclassified to Waldenburg in this context.

The community of Reinholdshain with its two districts came to the Saxon district of Glauchau in 1990 , which was merged in 1994 in the district of Chemnitzer Land and in 2008 in the district of Zwickau. With the incorporation of Reinholdshain with the districts Ebersbach and Kleinbernsdorf into the city of Glauchau, these have formed the district Reinholdshain since October 3, 1992. In the years 1830 , 1889 and 2006 Reinholdshain was hit by storms caused by hail. In a short time, all fields and gardens were destroyed. The floods in 1954 caused great damage in many villages on the Zwickauer Mulde. The concrete bridge between Jerisau and Reinholdshain was completely destroyed. The place was again hit by floods in 1974 and 1975 , which is why Reinholdshain was closed from the outside world for a few days. For example, Scheermühlenstrasse was flooded and production was temporarily stopped.

Former Inns, pubs and bakery

During the GDR period until after 1990 there were still three inns or small pubs in Reinholdshain. For example the well-known "Gasthof Döhler" near the fire station on the Ringstrasse. This has existed for centuries. During the revolution of 1848, social democratic events were held at Gasthof Döhler. Here to Robert Blum spoke. The Gasthof Döhler was closed after 2010. Another inn existed until the early GDR period at the junction of the road to Kleinbernsdorf from the ring road "Am Konsumberg". This inn was converted into a Konsum during the GDR era . The bakery was located close to this inn / Konsum until after 1990. During the GDR era, the small pub "Audörfel" was located in the district of Audörfel , which was closed around 1990. After 1990 a Greek restaurant was set up there for a short time. In an allotment garden in the Audörfel district , the "Relsner Eck" bar still existed until after 2000.

Church and cemetery

The old church of Reinholdshain cannot be backdated. However, it has been rebuilt and enlarged several times over the centuries. In its basic substance, it is around 500 years old, as an age of 338 years is noted in a document drawn up in 1844. Based on this information, the parish was able to celebrate the 500th anniversary of the building in 2006. But even before that there was probably a smaller church here. Today's basic structure corresponds to that from the 16th century. In 1803 the western entrance hall was added. In the same year existing dividing boxes between the altar place and the nave were removed. The old (not preserved) organ was played for the first time at Christmas 1803. It was later repaired several times. In 1894 the interior of the church was renewed and significantly redesigned in color. In 1905 a new organ from Rochlitz organ builder Schmeiser was installed here to replace the older one. Since this second organ was also prone to failure, a "new" organ was installed here in 1983 during the GDR era. The Reinholdshain parish was able to acquire the organ from the devastated village of Bösdorf in the Leipziger Land. This (third) organ was built in 1866 by the well-known organ builder Urban Kreuzbach for the Bösdorf church.

On April 14, 1945 , the church - especially the bell tower - was badly damaged by American troops as a result of acts of war. Tanks from the autobahn near Jerisau fired at the Reinholdshain church tower. The church was hit three times. People from the Volkssturm or soldiers are said to have been in the church tower, at least one of whom was killed. A grave in the cemetery with a steel helmet on it announced this during the GDR era. This grave site may have been relocated later and no longer has a steel helmet. Today it is generally dedicated to the fallen of the Second World War.

The church tower, roof and bells were destroyed in 1945. A new one was cast from the broken pieces of the three destroyed bells and consecrated for Thanksgiving in 1947 . It is no longer in the church tower, but above the staircase of the former church tower. The new church tower was built in a smaller form in the middle of the church roof. At Christmas 1945, after a makeshift repair of the church, a service could be held again. The new, slimmer church tower was built in the middle of the roof by 1950.

On the outer wall of the eastern south side (southwest corner) there is a remarkable historical tombstone (probably 17th or early 18th century?), About which no scientific knowledge is apparently available.

Until August 2020, the grave stone of the parents of the Chemnitz design professor Karl Clauss Dietel , who had his parents' house in Reinholdshain (today Wolkenburger Str. 4) and grew up here, was in the cemetery .

In addition, there is a partly weathered stone war memorial for the fallen of the First World War in the cemetery . The cemetery is surrounded by a low wall. Several monumental family graves from earlier centuries are placed on the inside. In the area of ​​the cemetery there are still some sheds, toilets and a morgue. The foundations of the former school, which burned down in 1911, seem to have been preserved in the cemetery area on the inside left next to the main gate.

school

The former school is in the immediate vicinity of the church. It was built in 1880 and expanded in 1890 . She had two classrooms. In addition, the church school teacher lived with his family in the school building. It was taught in five classes until 1932 and only three classes from 1932 due to the declining number of children. The last lesson took place in 1990 , the children living in Reinholdshain had to go to school in Niederlungwitz and Glauchau. Today the school building is used as a local authority.

Originally there was an old village school in the area of ​​the cemetery, which burned down on August 12, 1911. At this point in the summer there was great heat and water shortage. The little extinguishing water that was available had to be used to spray the church so that the flames could not spread from the burning school to the church.

Scheermühle

The Scheermühle Glauchau, located on the Lungwitzbach , was built in 1436 and until 1765 belonged to the Counts of Schönburg zu Fordglauchau . 1793 is named as the owner Johann Christoph Engelmann. The mill has belonged to Reinholdshain since 1873. The mill was in operation until 1990 and is now a listed building. The extensive building complex has been threatened with decay since 1990.

The historian Walter Schlesinger assumed the name origin of Sch ee rmühle and Glauchauer Sch e rberges (the latter written with only one e!) In the noble family of Scherre (s) which have been documented since the 15th century in Glauchau. He assumed she was the owner of the Scheermühle and possibly also of the formerly nearby sheep farm on the "Großer Teich" / "Schafteich". On a Glauchau mile sheet from 1798, the Schafhof am Großer Teich is shown here as "Schäeferey" ("Large pond behind the Schaff Hoffe zu Glaucha", probably so called in 1535). The Schafhof no longer exists on a map of Glauchau from 1882, but the Scheermühle is still shown here. Today (2020) the sheep pond at Scheermühle only exists as a rudiment without water. During the GDR period until around 1989 it was used as a garbage dump for the Glauchau chemical industry (VEB Spinnstoffwerk, etc.) and large areas were filled. Schlesinger suspected the "Scherngut" mentioned in an inheritance book of Glauchau in 1493 - the former location of which is unclear - to be identical to the later manorial Schönburg "Schafhof". Therefore would probably Scheer mill and the nearby Schafhof on Sheep Pond originally owned by the noble family of Scherres been and the field name Sch e rberg (with an e!) In Glauchau refers to this original owner family. The historical Scheermühle had (in the 16th century?) Three "grinding wheels" (water wheels or grinding stones?). 40 bushels of grain and the fattening of 12 pigs per year fell to the Glauchau office. At times the "Aß" ( bran and powdered flour) was also sold here (in the 16th century?). The Scheermühle was a flour mill that produced flour and sold it directly here.

Originally, the Scheermühle belonged to the Schönburg rulership of Glauchau and later to the rulership of Fordglauchau and the city of Glauchau, and in 1873 it was incorporated into the village of Reinholdshain as part of the town of Glauchau.

Reinholdshain-Ebersbach Forest

East of Reinholdshain and southwest of Ebersbach , as well as northeast of Niederlungwitz, there is a larger forest area between the three mentioned villages. It is referred to on maps as Reinholdshainer Forst (northwestern part) and Ebersbacher Wald (southeastern part). An agricultural paved road Pappelstraße / Breiter Weg leads from Niederlungwitz, an asphalted road from Reinholdshain and an asphalted agricultural road from Ebersbach into this forest. All three meet at an intersection directly at the bridge over the federal motorway 4 (asphalted agricultural road Reinholdshain-Ebersbach). There is also a covered bench for hikers here. A little south of this intersection, the so-called Kirchberg (352.1 m) is shown on maps as the highest point in this forest. North of this intersection is the northern branch of this forest, which is named as the Schlepzig parcel , is located directly south of the A4 motorway, and in which a stream rises that flows under the motorway to the north to Ebersbach. To the south of the crossroads at Kirchberg there are two large abandoned old quarries in the middle of the Ebersbacher Wald part at least 200 meters away . In this part of the forest the Rottelsbach rises , which flows through the southern part of the Ebersbacher Forest to the west and finally flows into the Lungwitzbach in Niederlungwitz . At the Rottelsbach there is a small reservoir in the Ebersbacher Wald , which was drained in 2019. It is the only pond in the Reinholdshain-Ebersbacher Wald.

A smaller fourth path (field path) reaches the Reinholdshain Forest on its west side from the Niederlungwitzer shooting range ("Zum Wiesengrund" in Niederlungwitz) and meets the path coming from Reinholdshain on the western edge of the Reinholdshain Forest.

Shortly after the confluence of the Plattenstraße coming from Niederlungwitz, there is a hunting lodge still in use in the Ebersbacher Wald on the right / southeast of this street . At the confluence of the Plattenstrasse in the forest is a popular vantage point, as one can see Niederlungwitz and parts of Glauchau from here. You have a direct view of the Glauchau Bismarck Tower on the Bismarckhöhe (317.3 m) over Glauchau and Niederlungwitz.

On the western and eastern side of the Ebersbacher Forest , two field paths / hiking trails lead to Lobsdorf or directly to the Niederlungwitz-Lobsdorf road.

The Reinholdshain-Ebersbacher Wald is a popular recreation area for hikers and cyclists, as it enables the aforementioned views and all forest paths / roads here are closed to regular traffic.
