from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Rietzschkegrund is an approximately 1.5 km long, gently sloping valley in the Lößnitz , in the Zitzschewig district of the Saxon city of Radebeul .

In addition to the Lößnitzgrund and the Fiedlergrund , it is one of the water-bearing mountain gorges in Radebeul. In contrast to the Lößnitzbach , the Rietzschke (also Rietzschkebach , from Sorbian rěčka , "Bach"), like the Fiedlerbach and the springs on the Straken , belongs to the lost waters , which means that it seeps away soon after leaving the actual ground in the Elbe sand terrace without reaching the Elbe . Today they are discharged into the sewer system if the amount of water reaches the inlet and does not dry out beforehand. Around 1800 the Rietzschkebach drove a water mill on the Paulsbergweg 13 property , which had to be converted to horse operation in 1849 due to lack of water. In 1853 the owner Carl Friedrich Müller had a Dutch windmill built right next to it, but it was abandoned before 1861.

As the street Rietzschkegrund , which officially received this name in 1897, the Berggasse begins at the confluence of the former mountain lanes Kynastweg, Hausbergweg and Talkenbergweg, in the historic vineyard landscape of Radebeul near Haus Baurick . After overcoming the leading to the northeast rise through the base of the plateau of the Lößnitz the ravine and the still ends Rietzschkegrund hot end, partly paved with sand trail then runs east through the forest corridors of Zitzschewig, Naundorf until after Oberkötzschenbroda where he north of Lindenau to about 2.8 kilometers meets the Dippelsdorfer Straße. The road begins at around 147  m above sea level and rises to 193  m at the intersection with Kreyernweg, and then back to 182  m above sea level. To fall below NHN .

The Rietzschkenberge form the southern slope at the entrance to the ground, which has been used for viticulture for centuries .

The Eulengrund is a side valley of the Rietzschegrund as well as a local road, the Kleine Rietzschke is a tributary of the Rietzschke as well as a local road.

geology

The slopes of the valley are made of syenite . About 500 to 600 meters north of the Elbe terrace, the ground breaks through a zone of gneisses that extends from Wackerbarth Castle to Weinböhla . To the south of the bottom there are medium-grain biotite gneiss , on the north side it is more coarse-grained and coarse-grained eye gneisses with up to 2 cm large eyes made of white to reddish potassium feldspar .

history

As early as the 17th century, there were isolated dwellings in what was then known as the Bettelgrund , but these were later abandoned by the poor residents and fell into disrepair. The most famous resident of that time was the former soldier Georg Fischer, who achieved dubious fame as a Kötzschenbroda miracle doctor in the decades after the Thirty Years' War . In 1659, he was expelled from the Leipzig Schöppenstuhl for three years. In February 1686 the Kötzschenbrodaer pastor Johann Georg Lucius noted in the death register that he laid the frozen, the "so-called Fish-Gregor [...] because of his dissolute way of life from a low Orth outside the church , without sound and song" means that the person who returned home after his exile was finally buried in unconsecrated earth.

It was not until the 1820s that the land began to be more densely populated, in particular by houses , which, however, was not wanted by the responsible state authorities. A decree of the state government of December 1828 states that "an expansion of the dwellings in the mountain gorge, called the Rietsche, is still not allowed". However, this order was canceled again or was forgotten, because according to Schubert (1865) a number of properties were built there, especially in 1838/39. A document from the old Zitzschewig community archive in the Radebeul city archive describes that in 1840 the local judge August Wächter was given the task by the Dresden council to gather the court officials of the village of Zitzschewig and the owners of the houses built in the Rietzschkegrund in order to work with a representative of the Dresden council determine the individual tax quanta for their properties.

In 1892 the master carpenter Ernst Moritz Großmann built the Rietzschkegrund inn in the upper area of ​​the site . This was not only the center of the isolated district for a long time, but also a destination and a stop on the popular hiking trail through the ground and on the plateau, which mainly consists of forest areas . The property (Rietzschkegrund 48), which is now a listed building, was built by the master builder Moritz Große .

Donadini's garden plot, 1894, filled with spoils from Dresden

In 1882 the well-known painter and photographer at the Saxon court, Ermenegildo Antonio Donadini (1847-1936), bought a vineyard house in Rietzschkegrund ( Donadini-Haus , Rietzschkegrund 21) as a summer residence and studio , where he worked year-round from 1913 until his death in 1936 Took old age residence. Today the property is a listed building.

Another painter lived and worked in the Rietzschkegrund. Fürchtegott Erhard Zwar (1898–1977) painted in a studio in Rietzschkegrund 25 that was open to the public at all times until his death in 1977, and he also ran a small farm. The buildings that formerly belonged to him were demolished in 1994 and then replaced by three new buildings that fit into the landscape, which the realizing architectural office built for itself as a studio and for the families of the two architect partners as residential buildings. The builders received the Radebeul builder award for this in 1998.
