history

Sacro was first mentioned in a document in 1300 under the name "Sacrowe". The place name comes from the Sorbian language and means "settlement behind a bush" ( za = "behind", krě = "bush").

Due to the political reorganization in the period after the Congress of Vienna , the formerly Saxon Sacro came to the Kingdom of Prussia . There the place was in the district of Sorau in the administrative district of Frankfurt belonging to the sub-province of Neumark . There the place was administered by the Bohrau district. On April 1, 1946 Sacro was in at that time as Stadtkreis existing city Forst (Lausitz) incorporated.

In 1950, Forst lost its administrative independence. Sacro was thus in the Cottbus district . On July 25, 1952, Sacro was assigned as part of the town of Forst to the then newly formed district of Forst in the Cottbus district . After the reunification , Sacro was initially in the district of Forst in Brandenburg, before the place was assigned to the newly founded district of Spree-Neisse as part of the town of Forst after the Brandenburg district reform of December 6, 1993 .
