Rodersdorf (desert)

Rodersdorf is a deserted area near Braunschwende in the district of Mansfeld-Südharz in Saxony-Anhalt , Germany . The presumably late Franconian settlement is located in the hallway of Der Uhlenhof about one kilometer north of the church in Braunschwende at a point that is now north of federal highway 242 . A trench leading to the one begins here to the northeast . Today the dirt road to Steinbrücken runs immediately to the east.

history

On January 6, 992, the settlement was in a document from King Otto III. mentioned. As Redgeresdorf , it was handed over to the Imperial Monastery of St. Servatius zu Quedlinburg , together with other goods , for the purpose of founding a Benedictine abbey in Walbeck . Half a millennium later, in 1477, the settlement was mentioned as Rodesdorf in a mortgage letter from Archbishop Ernst von Magdeburg as an accessory to the Rammelburg office together with Meisdorf and today's Schneblingen desert . In 1523 the settlement was mentioned as Rederstorf in a letter of fief from Archbishop Albrecht V to the Counts of Mansfeld . Around 1533/1534 the place was finally named in the Rammelburger Erbbuch as Rodersdorf .
