history

In 1335 the place was first mentioned under the place name Rudelsdorf . From 1457 Rußdorf belonged to the St. Georgenstift zu Altenburg through an exchange deal by the electoral councilor Hildebrand von Einsiedel . As a result, Rußdorf was subsequently an exclave to the “Altenburg care”, with which the place came to the Ernestine Electorate of Saxony when Leipzig was divided in 1485 . After the introduction of the Reformation , the Altenburg St. Georgenstift was dissolved in 1533 and Rußdorf was placed under the administration of the Altenburg District as part of the monastery property . After the Wittenberg surrender in 1547, Russdorf and the Altenburg office briefly belonged to the Albertine Electorate of Saxony. Through the Naumburg Treaty in 1554, the Altenburg office and its associated places became Ernestine again.
In the following period, the exclave of Rußdorf, surrounded by the Electoral Saxon and Schönburg regions, with the Altenburg office belonged to the following Ernestine duchies : Duchy of Saxony (1554 to 1572), Duchy of Saxony-Weimar (1572 to 1603), Duchy of Saxony-Altenburg (1603 to 1672), Duchy of Saxe-Gotha-Altenburg (1672 to 1826). When the Ernestine duchies were reorganized in 1826, Russdorf again became part of the Duchy of Saxony-Altenburg. After the administrative reform in the duchy, the Rußdorf exclave belonged to the eastern district (until 1900) and to the Altenburg district office (from 1900). Already in 1745 a hosiery guild was founded in Rußdorf . The quality goods were sold in a wide area. The center of Rußdorf used to consist of a church, school and an inn with relaxation. In the latter, the Altenburg officials, who collected taxes and customs and held court days, met every three years. Until the beginning of the 20th century, the customs station was about 400 meters east of today's "Gasthof Rußdorf" on Kirchweg. To this day, a customs barrier and a memorial stone symbolically remind of this time. Due to the customs duty when crossing the border into the Saxon area, Russdorf created considerable traffic obstructions, as the barrier forced everyone to stop. In 1912 the Duke and Duke of Altenburg visited Rußdorf for the last time. This was celebrated with a large folk festival. At that time, the Rußdorf industry consisted of around 25 smaller companies and the Welker & Sons stocking factory, which for the first time employed around 500 workers. There were also around 100 shops and craftsmen as well as 50 farmers and farms. So Russdorf was completely independent of the Saxon area.
From 1918 on, Rußdorf belonged to the Free State of Saxony-Altenburg , which was incorporated into the State of Thuringia in 1920, while its neighboring towns came from the Kingdom of Saxony to the Free State of Saxony in 1918 . Parts of Russdorf, however, also belonged to Saxony. These were the houses west of the river on Limbacher Strasse and in the northeastern corridor, which was bordered by Meinsdorfer Strasse in the west and Waldenburger Strasse in the south. The latter were not yet shown on a historical table from 1874. In 1928 the special political role of Rußdorf, which had lasted almost 500 years, was ended by a state treaty between Saxony and Thuringia. The Thuringian parts of the town were integrated into the surrounding area of Saxony through an exchange of territory. Since then, the entire town of Rußdorf, which at that time had around 4,000 inhabitants, belonged to the Saxon administrative authority of Chemnitz , which was renamed the Chemnitz district in 1939.
On March 31, 1935, Russdorf was incorporated into Oberfrohna , which received city rights in the same year. With the formation of the city of Limbach-Oberfrohna, Rußdorf became a district of Limbach-Oberfrohna on July 1, 1950 and was thus given the name Limbach-Oberfrohna III. As a result of the second district reform in the GDR , Russdorf came as a district of the city of Limbach-Oberfrohna in 1952 to the Chemnitz-Land district in the Chemnitz district (renamed the Karl-Marx-Stadt-Land district and the Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ) 1990 as the Saxon district of Chemnitz was continued. When it was dissolved, Rußdorf became part of the town of Limbach-Oberfrohna in 1994 and became part of the Chemnitzer Land district , which was opened up in the Zwickau district in 2008.
