Rippien is the southern end point of the surveying system by Wilhelm Gotthelf Lohrmann from 1828. Other measuring points were at the Zwinger in the inner old town of Dresden and at Rähnitz north in Dresden, where the "Meridian Column" (a 10 meter high sandstone column ) is the northern end point of the exactly aligned north-south line marked.

history

The Sorbian town was first mentioned in a document in 1295 as Rypin . The place is marked as Rüpchen on a map from the second half of the 18th century .

From 1550 to 1900 sandstone was mined in one large and several small quarries.

The persistence shaft in 1882

The already since the beginning of the 16th century in the Plauen reason operated coal mines reached in the 19th century on the surrounding communities. From 1850 to 1854 the Hänichener Steinkohlenbauverein zu Dresden sunk the 470 meter deep persistence shaft in Rippien , which from 1857 had a 940 meter long siding to the Hänichen coal branch line . The shaft was sunk another 100 meters in 1889. Due to the exhaustion of coal reserves and increasingly falling productivity due to domestic and foreign competition, the association had to stop mining in 1906 and go into liquidation. With the coal mining industry, Rippien developed into a workers' community.
