Location of the community Schönheide in the Erzgebirge district

Schönheide is a municipality in the Saxon Erzgebirgskreis and lies in the Western Ore Mountains . It is the most westerly municipality in the Ore Mountains and was heavily influenced by industry until the end of the 20th century. Today there is a mixture of commercial jobs and those in the service sector .

Geographical location

The more than five kilometer long Schönheide lies with its district Schönheiderhammer in the valley of the Zwickauer Mulde , which forms the southern border of the community. From there the place extends in the valley of the Filzbach and the Dorfbach to the west. The terrain rises steadily from Schönheiderhammer at 542 m to the highest point in the municipality, the Laubberg at 767  m above sea level. NHN . The largely unwooded "Knock" - a name from Wendish - is 725.5  m above sea level. NHN the highest point in the area of ​​the village center. In the valley of the Zwickauer Mulde, the district of Wilzschhaus is located upstream from Schönheiderhammer. The border to the Czech Republic is about 11 kilometers away to the southeast.

climate

The mean precipitation values ​​for Schönheide were 1046 millimeters per year in the period from 1935 to 1964 and 1038 millimeters per year in the period from 1900 to 1950. For the location in the strong windward area of ​​the Ore Mountains, these monthly mean values ​​were measured between 1901 and 1950 at the measuring station at a height of 650 meters (January to December): 77, 64, 69, 82, 100, 107, 128, 112, 80, 79, 69 and 71. The mean sum of annual precipitation in the Schönheider Kuppen area is 940 to 995 millimeters, the mean annual temperatures are around 6.3 ° C to 6.4 ° C. The cold air collects in the slopes of the plateaus and flows off into the main valleys. This results in a particular risk from frost. Cold air is often created and collected in the Schönheider Kuppen area. Hollow forms in the form of depressions represent cold air collection areas with the consequence of a particular risk of frost. This also applies to the Schönheider Kuppen area.

Community structure

The community consists of the four districts Schönheide, Schönheiderhammer with Altes Wiesenhaus , Neuheide and Wilzschhaus . Due to the size of the Schönheide district, it is divided into Ascherwinkel , Anger, Baumannsberg, Oberdorf, Fuchswinkel , Heinzwinkel , Mitteldorf, Schädlichsberg , Schwarzwinkel and Webersberg . The Rote Mühle was part of the municipality of Schönheiderhammer until the 1930s, although it was surrounded by the Schönheider area. The district of Carolagrün , which belonged to Schönheide in the south-west of the forest until 1973, was a public health center for people with lung disease from 1899 to 1965 , especially for tuberculosis treatment. Carolagrün has been part of Auerbach / Vogtl since Schnarrtannes was incorporated in 1995.

Natural location

Agriculture in front of the Muldental and forests rising to the south

Schönheide belongs to the definition of the physiographic units for natural region Saxon highlands and low mountains in the Makrogeochore Westerzgebirge which has been divided for the relevant here range in the Mesogeochoren "Eibenstocker ridge" with, among others, "Rautenkranz-Schönheider trough Valley" and "Schönheider plateaus "With the microgeochores" Silberbach valley "," Schönheider Kuppengebiet "and" Schnarrtanner plateau ". The Saxon State Environment Agency describes the natural spatial character of the upper Westerzgebirge around Eibenstock: Determining morphogenetic units are Riedel valley areas, mountain ridges and plateaus made of metamorphic rocks of different hardness as well as crested granite plateaus and leads the Schönheider hilltop area with a height of 590 to 686 meters .

The landscape assessment of the Federal Agency for Nature Conservation ranks the area "Obere Lagen on the northern roofing of the West and Middle Ore Mountains", to which Schönheide belongs, as a "landscape worthy of protection" and the landscape type "pure forest landscape", i.e. with a forest share of over 70% .

Schönheide is located in the Erzgebirge / Vogtland Nature Park and is surrounded by meadows, pastures and forests. In its description of the Western Ore Mountains, the Federal Agency for Nature Conservation points out that one of the few plateaus in this area is in Schönheide. There is little agriculture left. The forests are predominantly spruce forests, mixed forest has a very small proportion. From Knock and von der Allee - two largely unwooded elevations near the village - you have a clear view over the village and its surroundings to the large forests south of the Zwickauer Mulde and on to Auersberg .

• Mountain meadows on the southern slope of the Knock as Natura 2000 area " Mountain meadows around Schönheide and Stützengrün " totaling 135.5 hectares, of which Schönheide share with 93.2 hectares 69%. The description of the Federal Agency for Nature Conservation summarizes: "Complex of grassland areas with fresh, wet and mountain meadows as well as small-scale mixed beech forest, bog forest and intermediate moor" . Ten habitat types (LRT) from the Habitats Directive of the European Union are named, including mountain meadows (LRT 6520) and species-rich nebula grass lawns (LRT 6230), but also silicate rocks with crevice vegetation (LRT 8220), silicate rocks with pioneer grass (LRT 8230) and dry heaths (LRT 4030). For the mountain meadows Gold Haferwiese and Bärwurz - red fescue -Wiese characteristic. The latter is the most common company in the Saxon low mountain ranges.

The unpublished management plan for this area contains the measures that are suitable for achieving the conservation objectives.
• Moore nature reserve south of Schönheide with a size of 27.83 hectares. The Erzgebirgskreis announced the public interpretation of the draft ordinance in February 2013. and issued the Protection Ordinance at the end of 2013. The basis of the protection is the 100-page nature conservation assessment from January 2012 by a Halle specialist office for ecology and nature conservation. The following were included in the nature reserve:
  • two natural landmarks south of the Knock, established in 1979: "Meadow on the Baumgärtelskiefern" with a size of one hectare and "Keilberg-Moor" (0.18 hectare)
  • The "Schönheider Hochmoor" (so-called Baumgärtels Kiefern) was a nature reserve from 1967 to 1983 and was then cleared because, despite the protection regulations, non-local Murray pines were planted in the moor, peat meadows were planted with spruce, residual peat mounds were pitted and the moor was dried out through ditches. Renaturation activities have been carried out for over twenty years.
  • Wet meadow next to the "Pimpergarten" on Fichtigweg.
• The pedunculate oak on the market square next to the town hall has been a natural monument as Schönheid's coat of arms oak since 1958 .

mountains

The highest mountain in the municipality is the Laubberg ( 767  m above sea  level ). It is just before the border with Schnarrtanne. The Kuhberg , with a height of 794.6  m above sea level, is not located in Schönheid municipality . NHN the highest mountain in the western Ore Mountains north of the Zwickauer Mulde. Although it has been referred to as “Kuhberg bei Schönheide” on countless postcards since the construction of a lookout tower in 1894, it is located in the municipality of Stützengrüner. In the middle of the village, in the south, the partially wooded Knock Mountain ( 725.5  m above sea  level ) and the unforested Berg Allee ( 684  m above sea  level ), also called Oberförster-Knock, face each other. South of the upper part of the village lies the unforested Baumannsberg, at a height of 725.5  m above sea level. NHN as high as the knock. Farther south of this is an unnamed mountain ( 727.9  m above sea  level ) that is not named on the map and named Schuchhübel on site . It is followed further south to the Zwickauer Mulde by the Große Keilberg ( 689.1  m above sea  level ), the Hammerkogel ( 686.6  m above sea  level ) and the Untere Keilberg ( 686  m above sea  level ). North of the district of Fuchswinkel is the Fuchsstein ( 721.9  m above sea  level ), to the east of the district of Webersberg (with the two hills Vorderer - 652.3  m above sea  level - and Hinterer Berg - 674.9  m above sea  level ) the Ottilienstein ( 687.9  m above sea  level ), in the area of ​​the district of Schädlichsberg the Vogelherd ( 636.4  m above sea  level ) and north of Schönheiderhammer the Butterberg ( 647.1  m above sea  level ).

Waters

Zwickauer Mulde in summer at the bridge at Herrenwiese

In addition to numerous unnamed, in particular forest streams south of Schönheide, these streams flow into the Zwickau Mulde in the Schönheide area : The Silberbach - the longest of the streams flowing through the forests south of Schönheide: Its two tributaries arise in the forest at about 725 m altitude east of the 767 m high Laubberg (on Schönheider municipality east of Schnarrtanne). After about a kilometer eastward flow direction, the two source streams unite and flow through the forest to the south. At an altitude of 651 m, the Silberbach crosses the Schönheider reservoir and flows east of Carolagrün in a section of the former Bad Reiboldsgrün specialist hospital through a meadow valley, in order to strive for the rest of its course in a south-easterly direction exclusively through the forest of the Zwickauer Mulde, where it flows north of Wilzschhaus opens at an altitude of 585 m. Except for a short stretch in the Wiesental near Carolagrün, the Silberbach only runs in the Schönheider area. In the lower area it is a trout water, since the diffuse pollution by water pollution control was removed.

Winter in the valley of the Tannenbach

The Tannenbach rises 700 m above sea level in Oberschönheide at the end of the village in the direction of Schnarrtanne and, crossing under the Carolagrüner Straße, flows steeply downwards after a short distance between meadows in the forest in a deeply cut valley surrounded by granite rocks. At a height of 585.5 m, it flows into the Zwickauer Mulde east of Wilzschhaus. The Tannenbach is also a trout river in the lower reaches.

The Keilbach rises at a height of about 675 m in the Schönheides forest area south of the Knock, between the Upper Keilberg (689.1 m) and an unmarked mountain (686.6 m) west of the Lower Keilberg. It flows steeply through clear forest to the Zwickauer Mulde, into which it flows east of the Tannenbach.

The Filzbach - named after the boggy area just below its source - is referred to by the State of Saxony in maps and official publications as Schönheider Bach and Dorfbach Schönheide (with the water code 54115732), possibly to be confused with the Filzbach near Schneeberg, the source brook of the Zschorlaubach , to avoid. The Filzbach rises south-east of the Kuhberg at an altitude of over 730 m, flows through Neuheide in an easterly direction - there it drove the wheel of the Rote Mühle -, absorbs the waters of the Black Brook coming from Stützengrün and is given by the nameless ones flowing from the Webersberg and Neuheide Streams additionally fed. It already achieved a water quality of I to II in 2003. One of the reasons for this was the construction of the sewage tunnel through the Eibenstock dam in 2000.

One of the main tributaries is the Schönheider Dorfbach, which flows through almost the entire village of Schönheide from west to east and along which the first settlement took place, still recognizable today by the forest hooves of the corridor. Since the last work was completed at the end of the 1930s, the Dorfbach has been piped for almost its entire length. It flows into the Filzbach in Unterschönheide at "Paradies" in the area of ​​the former Fischer mill. Several mills (including the perennial mill) were previously operated on the lower course of the river. This flows into the Eibenstock dam in Schönheiderhammer.

The Kuhberg massif is a watershed between the Zwickauer Mulde and the Saale . The streams flowing from it to the west flow to the Saale, those to the east to the Zwickauer Mulde. The Holzbach ( water code number 566222) rises south of the Kuhberg at a height of 700 m , which flows past the Hahnenhäuser belonging to Schnarrtanne in a westerly direction, then on the road between Wernesgrün and Schnarrtanne in a north direction towards the Wernesbach, in which it joins the The federal road from Wernesgrün to Rodewisch opens. The Holzbach is the only brook with a name from the Schönheid municipality whose water does not flow into the Mulde, but into the Saale.

Still waters

With 37,000 square meters, the reservoir has the largest water surface. It is located 651 m above sea level south of Auerbacher Strasse in the forest and was created in the 1930s as part of the work of the Reich Labor Service. The owner is the state of Saxony, the community Schönheide has leased the water area and its surroundings as bathing water. The municipality rejects the offer to buy this area. In 2018, the sludge that has developed over decades will be removed from the inlet pond above the reservoir, which makes up around 4,000 tonnes, and transported away. By emptying the inlet pond via pipes and not having to pierce the dam for emptying, no sludge and other turbid substances were washed into the reservoir. This means that the reservoir can continue to be used as a bathing lake while the inlet pond is being emptied. The Silberbach flows through the lake.
Of the three ponds in Neuheide, the lowest, the mill pond, was used to regulate the water for the operation of the Red Mill .
The black pond in the Schwarzwinkel, which is traversed by a nameless stream coming down from the Webersberg east of the Münzbachtal, may have been created so that the mills on the Filzbach could be operated even when the water level was low.
The cat pond in the area of ​​the allotment garden south of the Knock mountain is a man-made pond.
The pond on the site of the large brush factory in the Ascherwinkel district was created as a fire fighting pond and wet storage facility for brush logs.

Flood 2013

The Filzbach during the flood on June 2, 2013 in the Paradise area

During the flooding in early June 2013, the Filzbach flooded the artificial ice stadium in the Neuheide district . Despite the short run to the stadium, heavy rain caused the water to rise so high that it stood one meter high in the stadium and irreparably damaged the cooling units. The masses of water inundated a car dealership as well as several shops and apartment buildings in Schönheide. From May 29th to June 3rd, 218 mm of precipitation fell at the Eibenstocker Talsperre measuring point.

The municipality is almost 64 percent covered with forest. Schönheide is thus well above the average for the Erzgebirge district of 44.9 percent and has more than twice as high a proportion of forests as the Federal Republic of Germany with 30.1 percent. The agriculturally used area makes up 22.9 percent in Schönheide, 40.5 percent in the Erzgebirge and 52.3 percent in Germany. Due to the disproportionately high proportion of forests, the proportion of agricultural land is very clearly below that of the region and that of Germany. About the water surface: In addition to the streams and ponds as well as the Schönheider part of the Zwickauer Mulde, part of the Eibenstock dam also belongs to the municipality.

history

The 750-millimeter narrow-gauge railway in museum operation

The first settler in the Schönheid area is Urban Männel, who is said to have built the first house in 1537. The Turkish tax register of 1542 names the names of 12 farmers. Schönheide was as a municipality with the so-called liberation letter of the sovereign Balthasar Friedrich Edler von der Planitz from March 20, 1549 ^jul. formally founded.

On December 24, 1563 ^Jul. the place came into the possession of the Wettins through sale and thus the Schwarzenberg rule . In 1566 the iron hammer works, which is still operated as an iron foundry, was founded in Schönheiderhammer . In 1596 the first church was built. It collapsed in 1764. A man was killed in the process. The church was rebuilt according to plans by Christian Döltz from 1766 to around 1773 in its present external form and then expanded and painted inside by 1835. In 1669 a craft guild was founded.

The place name has been spelled differently throughout history. 1542 Schönnheyde , 1549 Schonheyde , 1557 Schönheyde , 1572 Schonheida , 1572 Schönheida . From 1875 the current official spelling Schönheide was introduced.

With the construction of the Chemnitz – Adorf railway line , the town received a railway connection in Schönheiderhammer and Wilzschhaus in 1875. Several public buildings that still exist today were built between 1880 and 1900: Town Hall 1882, Post Office 1891, Geschwister-Scholl-Schule 1896–1898. The Flemming factory from 1896 was demolished in the 2000s, as was one of the two Lenks villas, Art Nouveau buildings from around 1900. In 1893, with the construction of the Wilkau-Haßlau-Carlsfeld narrow-gauge railway, the Schönheide Mitte station and the Oberschönheide stops came and in Neuheide too.

In the period between 1914 and 1945, the wars caused high unemployment and poverty in Schönheide, as in the rest of the Erzgebirge. Towards the end of the Second World War on February 21, 1945, a satellite camp of the Flossenbürg concentration camp was set up in the village , in which 50 concentration camp inmates had to do forced labor for the R. Fuess company (Berlin) . These prisoners were sent on the death march to Karlsbad on April 13, 1945 .

Call for the establishment of the Schönheide branch of the Social Democratic Party in January 1990

During the GDR era, a children's holiday camp was operated in the village .

The communities Schönheiderhammer and Neuheide were incorporated into Schönheide on July 1, 1949 (law on the amalgamation of the communities Schönheide, Schönheiderhammer and Neuheide - Aue district - of April 29, 1949).

In 1974 the construction of the Eibenstock dam began . As a result, the railway line in the Mulde valley between Blauenthal and Schönheide Ost had to be shut down in 1975. In 1977 the narrow-gauge line was also discontinued, and a museum railway now runs on a section.

The infrastructure was expanded from 1990 onwards, but unemployment rose again due to the closure of many businesses.

Development of the population

After the twelve farmers mentioned by name in 1542, to which their families and servants are to be added, further settlers came, so that in 1563, the year in which Schönheide was sold to the Elector August, the number rose to 49 farmers. In addition, there was a manorial Vorwerk with its residents. 1572 56 were residents reached, including six full-farmers, even tensioner called 48 tenants , so farmers with only half a fief or less, and two Eingebäuder or Häusler . Here, too, families and servants have to be added, probably by seven to 10 people per household, which would result in a population of 392 to 560.

Of the 4,918 residents on December 31, 2011, 2,415 were male and 2,503 were female. 23 were foreigners.

The Bertelsmann Foundation's Guide to Commune, forecasts the community's population development by 2030, in line with the trend that has been observed for over 20 years. This hardly differs from the data for the Erzgebirge district in the 5th regionalized population forecast up to 2025 for Saxony by the State Statistical Office.

Schönheide's age structure differs significantly from that of the whole of Germany. The data for 2010 show a share of the under 20 year olds of 18.4 percent (Schönheide minus 4.7 percentage points), of the 20 to under 60 year olds 55.3 percent (Schönheide minus 7.1 percentage points) and in the age group “60 years and older” of 26.3 percent (Schönheide plus 11.8 percentage points). According to the 2011 census , the youth quotient (number of under 18 year olds per 100 people aged 18 to under 65) was exactly 22 in 2011 compared to 30 in 1990. In contrast, the old age quotient (number of 65 year olds and older each 100 people aged 18 to under 65) from 30 in 1990 to 51 in 2011.

• In the first years after the Second World War, a memorial was erected on the lower part of the old cemetery for 30 concentration camp prisoners from the Lengenfeld and Zwickau subcamps of the Flossenbürg concentration camp , who were shot by SS men on a death march in Schönheide on April 14, 1945 were.
• A plaque on the memorial in the old cemetery commemorates the anti-fascist Rudi Radecker, who was executed in 1942.
• The fire brigade memorial in the upper part of the village, originally erected to commemorate the firefighters who died in World War I , now has a memorial plaque for all of Schönheide's firefighters who died in wars.
• On the outer wall of the Brush and Local History Museum, two cast iron plaques pay tribute to the athletes from Schönheiderhammer and Schönheide who died in World War I. The latter board was previously attached to the south side of the demolished gymnasium.

politics

Municipal council

Center for municipal decisions - town hall by architect Ernst Giese (Dresden) from 1882

After reunification, the administration in Saxony was completely restructured. For the municipalities, the municipal self-administration of Article 28 Paragraph 2 of the Basic Law now applied , according to which the municipalities can organize their municipal affairs independently and on their own responsibility through their elected representatives, the elected mayors and the municipal administration subordinate to them. The Saxon municipal code regulates the details .

The municipal council primarily decides on local matters, usually at the suggestion of the mayor. In particular, it decides on the municipality's budget. He prepares his decisions in the committees. In the election on May 26, 2019 , the CDU received seven (five in 2014), the Independent Voting Association (UWG) five (nine), the AfD two seats (not represented), the SPD one (two) and the FDP one seat (not represented). There is one woman among the 16 members of the parish council.

mayor

Mayor is Kai Wilhelm, born in 1975 (non-party, mandate UWG), a trained administrative specialist who was employed as chief office manager in an Erzgebirge municipal administration until his election. He was elected on June 8, 2008 with a voter turnout of 72.3% (3,229 votes cast out of 4,464 eligible voters) with 2,032 votes (63.8%) for a term of seven years. His competitor Michael Härtel (CDU) achieved 36.2% (1,152 votes).

In the mayoral election on June 7, 2015 in Schönheide, the previous incumbent Kai Wilhelm ran for the CDU as a candidate for the Independent Voters' Association (UWG) and council member Gunnar Stöckert. Of the 3,949 eligible voters, 2,548 took part in the election (64.5%). Kai Wilhelm was re-elected with 2,117 votes (84.2%). His competitor Stöckert received 396 votes (15.8%).

With effect from December 12, 2017, Mayor Wilhelm of the Erzgebirgskreis district was prohibited from exercising his office for an initial period of three months "as part of disciplinary measures". The legal basis for this is Section 67 of the Saxon Civil Service Act in conjunction with Section 39 of the Civil Service Status Act . On November 9, 2017, the Erzgebirgskreis had issued a disciplinary order against Wilhelm with a wage cut for two years. In 2014, the district had already issued a reprimand against the mayor for an official offense. The mayor announced at the beginning of January 2018 that he would defend himself against the official ban. At an event in Schönheide on February 26, 2018, the district administrator of the Erzgebirgskreis, Frank Vogel , said the investigations had been concluded. Due to further legal steps, the Erzgebirgskreis extended the official ban indefinitely. On the agenda of an extraordinary meeting of the municipal council on March 27, 2018 was the appointment of an administrative administrator to perform the duties of the mayor. According to Section 54 (4) of the Saxon Municipal Code , a mayor who is prevented from exercising his office for a long period of time can be appointed an official administrator. Eberhard Mädler, previously chairman of the UWG parliamentary group in the local council, was elected as official administrator. He has been in office since April 1, 2018.

At the end of July 2018, the Erzgebirgskreis handed over the files of the disciplinary investigation proceedings against the mayor to the regional directorate. The district had determined "serious allegations of wrongdoing". In a press release, the district points out that “due to the seriousness of the service offense” and “the loss of confidence on the part of the employer and the general public”, the “orientation framework” […] “was opened up to removal from service” when “measuring a disciplinary measure” ". The Aue regional edition of the Free Press reported in its online edition of criminal investigations by the Chemnitz public prosecutor's office for breach of trust and forgery of documents.

Cooperation with Stützengrün

Schönheide has a joint registry office with the neighboring community of Stützengrün. This intermunicipal cooperation is to be expanded through a joint building authority. The Schönheide municipal council has already approved an agreement on this.

coat of arms

Blazon : In silver over a black point and in front of two diagonally crossed black mountain hammers and a black hoe a rooted green oak, each side accompanied by a green heather plant with a red flower on each side.

The coat of arms was introduced with this description by the Schönheider municipal council in its meeting on May 5, 1997. It is based on a "court sigil to Schönheyd" used in 1643 and takes over the motifs of the coat of arms. An oak tree has stood on the market square in front of the town hall since the early 17th century. Mallets and irons are reminiscent of mining from the founding period to the 18th century. The hoe indicates that the forest has been cleared for settlement. The heather plants take up the name of the community. The origin and meaning of the black point under the oak are unclear, it can already be found on the seal from 1643.

The municipal flag is described in the resolution of the municipal council of May 5, 1997 as follows: "Green and white bicolor with applied municipal coat of arms."

In Schönheide, western Ore Mountains are spoken, and the Vogtland dialect begins just a few kilometers further west - behind the forest . The people of Schönheide refer to their village as "Schennhaad". In the surrounding villages and towns the term "Schiehaad" is more common. Already in Aue (Saxony), 20 km down the river, the way of speaking of the Schönheider people is called singing. The sentence "Wu de Hasen Hos'n un de Hosen Hus'n hate, do bie mech dorrhamm." (Where the rabbits are called "Hos'n" and the pants are "Hus'n", I am at home.) an insight into the Western Ore Mountains. The Schönheid dialect writer Martina Gutzeit speaks Schönheid Erzgebirge in a kind of stage German, as the recitation of one of her poems shows.

A church was built around 40 years after the village was founded, and after its collapse, from 1766 to 1773, a large rococo building with three-storey galleries on three sides in the form of a Saxon Protestant preaching church was built according to plans by the builder Christian Döltz East side with altar, pulpit and organ one above the other. Inside the church is 29 meters long, 15 meters high and 15 meters wide. The interior work dragged on for decades until around 1835. 32 glazed prayer rooms were rented to help finance the construction, the one to the right of the altar bears the coat of arms of the former owners of the Schönheiderhammer ironworks, Edler von Querfurth. In 1902/03 the church was rebuilt. Except for the addition of a sacristy to the east, the exterior remained essentially unchanged with its steep, slate-roofed gable roof with dormer windows, the tower, which is a little too low in relation to the height of the nave, and the nave with high continuous windows and buttresses. Inside the ceiling was suspended and decorated with stucco. The organ gallery was moved to the west side, a Jehmlich organ replaced the one by Johann Gottlob Trampeli from 1795, the Trampeli case came in a different configuration in front of the new organ. Dehio emphasizes the "predominantly uniform rococo furnishings" of the Schönheider church, the changes to the renovation from the beginning of the 20th century "fit into the overall picture".

Economy and Infrastructure

trade and Industry

In 2016, around half of 1,681 people who were subject to social insurance contributions in Schönheide, namely 838, worked in the manufacturing sector . In addition, there were 1,504 people working outside the town.

Agriculture

Agriculture today means at an altitude of 550 to over 730 m to limit oneself to livestock because of the short vegetation period. But until the 1960s, the 30 or so farmers in Schönheide had the classic combination of agriculture with grain, beets and potatoes and livestock. The animals were tethered in the barn all year round. Because of the small area per farm, three -purpose cattle were a matter of course, only farmers with more area had draft oxen, some worked with the combination of horse and ox. Farmers with two horses were the exception. Because of the steep climbs and the long snow cover of the ravines on the north sides, the typical winter work - such as the transport of manure to the fields - had to be done in a very long time on long detours over less steep roads and paths. Long distances were a general problem for all field work: Schönheide's farmers had long, narrow strips in the Waldhufendorf that went from the farm to the edge of the forest. Agriculture was difficult, especially in the area of ​​the dome-like heights, as the cover with the humus layer is very thin due to the low weathering of the soil. The Saxon State Environment Agency described the Upper Western Ore Mountains as an extremely unfavorable area in terms of soil fertility . In the extreme soil and climatic conditions in the direction of the ridge, the arable land counts for poor, acidic soils are below 20. The State Office assesses the soil potential of arable land in the upper mountain regions, predominantly and on poor soils in the ridge areas, as low to very low.

In the period after the Second World War, the lack of artificial fertilizers was serious. A general lack of food and a large population caused many residents to keep rabbits, goats and sheep, for which they fetched food at the roadsides. Or they let the animals graze pegged. In the course of the land reform in the Soviet occupation zone - according to the slogan Junkerland in peasant hands - the land belonging to the owners of the Schönheiderhammer ironworks, the von Querfurth family, in the Schädlichsberg area was divided up among new farmers . In terms of production, the farmers were not free to make their own decisions; within the framework of the GDR planned economy, they were assigned production quantities that were qualitatively and quantitatively determined depending on the area, so-called “targets”, which were bought up at prices set by the state. The additional production, so-called “free tip”, could be freely sold by the farmers. The machine and lending station in Affalter , later machine-tractor station , brought the first opportunities to operate more mechanized agriculture in the early 1950s, especially in the field of tractor and harvesting machines.

In the 1950s the collectivization of agriculture began via the so-called type 1 ( type 1, everyone does theirs ). In order to increase the pressure to join, the possibility to borrow machines and equipment was made more difficult. In 1961, the Agricultural Production Cooperative (LPG) in Schönheide was converted to type 3, the so-called full collectivization, and all farmers were brought to join, in particular through strong psychological pressure. Only a few areas remained outside the LPG "Vorwärts". The cultivation in the narrow hooves was given up in favor of large contiguous areas, the strips with reading stones between the hooves and vegetation removed, moist meadows partially reforested and steep areas left to their own devices. In the district of Schädlichsberg, the LPG built a cattle community stable based on the Soviet model as an open cattle stable , which in view of the snowy winters in the Ore Mountains led to a considerable degree of animal diseases, underperformance and animal losses, so that it had to be converted into a closed stable. The Schönheider LPG “Vorwärts” specialized in rearing heifers . As part of the cooperation with other LPGs in the Zwickau area, she received calves that were reared in Schönheide and brought back to the lowlands as dairy cows.

After 1990 the LPG "Vorwärts" dissolved and most of the agricultural land was returned to the owners. Today they are mainly used as lease areas by two redevelopers . A larger farm kept sheep until a few years ago and then switched to suckler cow husbandry . In addition to the pastures, it uses the areas for hay and silage advertising and the cultivation of feed grain. In addition, some farms keep beef cattle to a lesser extent, including Galloway cattle .

media

In Schönheide the "Schönheider Wochenblatt - independent regional newspaper with official announcements of the community Schönheide as well as information from Carlsfeld , Stützengrün and the surrounding area" appears on Fridays . The weekly newspaper was available from 1872 to May 1941 on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays and for a short time after the war ended in 1945. At the beginning of 1990 the journalist and today's editor Eberhard Mädler re-founded it.

The regional section "Auer Zeitung" of the Chemnitz daily Freie Presse also reports on local events .

Municipal infrastructure

In 1895 the community of Schönheide built an electricity plant that went into operation in 1896. Drinking water has been obtained from the Carlsfeld dam since 1936 .

The first cemetery southeast of the Martin Luther Church existed from the beginning of the settlement until 1838 at the place where the market square is today and the town hall. The cemetery, which was operated from 1839 onwards, was owned by the Evangelical Lutheran parish. It is called the Old Cemetery after the construction of a municipal cemetery in 1995 . The cemetery chapel, some mausoleums and tombs and the cemetery as a whole are cultural monuments.
