Schönberg , also called Schönberg am Herrnsberg , is a district of the municipality of Cunewalde in Saxony with about 200 inhabitants.

geography

The village is located at the eastern foot of the 402.2 m high Herrnsberg on the road from Cunewalde to Pielitz . To the north rises the 514 m high Döhlener Berg , in the northeast the 555.7 m high Czorneboh . To the southeast, spring mountain joins Schönberg.

Schönberg is surrounded by numerous quarries, which are evidence of the lively quarry industry. In 1895 there were already 15 larger mining sites on the Pielitzhöhe (“Rogg & Co.” quarry, in operation until 1979, bottom depth of 68 m), the Herrnsberg (“Märchensee” quarry) and at Hromadnik (“Hölle” quarry). The stonemason profession was very well represented in the village at that time. This is how the originally one-story buildings made of granite rubble on the spring mountain were called Steinbrechersiedlung.

history

Schönberg was first mentioned in 1317, when Hercelinus de Cunewalde sold his share in Cunewalde together with Schönberg to the cathedral monastery of Sankt Petri in Bautzen. From this, the owner of the Weigsdorf manor, Peter von Kopperitz, acquired Schönberg in 1547. Apparently Schönberg's membership in the Weigsdorf manor did not last long. Around 1622 Hofrat Felix von Rüdinger on Weigsdorf bought "Schumbergk" from the cathedral monastery again for 3,180 Meissen gulden .

In 1839 the political community of Schönberg was established, which at that time had 469 inhabitants. In 1976 Schönberg was incorporated into Cunewalde.
