history

Schneidbach emerged towards the end of the 12th century as a Franconian forest hoof village on the edge of the Sorbian settlement area around Mylau Castle . The settlement structure with the fork in the road typical for the place has been preserved to the present day. The place was first mentioned in 1292 as "villa Sneytenbach". The name of the village goes back to the Middle High German word "sneite", which means "sheath" or "border". This border brook was probably the Göltzsch running west of the village. At that time this was the border between the Mylau rule , to which Schneidbach belonged, and a forest area, which belonged to the rule area of Elsterberg Castle . In the Middle Ages, the place consisted of around two dozen farms.

Until the 19th century, the manorial power over Schneidbach was divided between the manors Netzschkau and Mylau . Until 1856, Schneidbach belonged to the Electoral Saxon or Royal Saxon Office of Plauen . In 1856 the place was affiliated with the Reichenbach court office and in 1875 with the Plauen administration .

In the Göltzsch valley west of Schneidbach there were several mills until the 19th century. The "Rösenmühle", on whose location the "Schotenmühle Power Plant" is today, was mentioned in 1496 as the "Rossmühle". A weir is mentioned around 1650, which was located 300 meters above the mill and supplied it with water. Around 1700, the Reichenbach cloth makers changed from a grain mill to a fulling mill . After 1800 the mill was stopped. The property only served as an estate. The mill estate burned down around 1840. The "Schotenmühle" stood 150 meters east of the Rösenmühle until 1896. It was first mentioned in the 15th century and was initially a hammer mill, i. H. it was used as a forge. The pod mill later served as a grinding, sawing and probably also as a color mill for the Mühlwander alum slate . After that it was used as a fulling mill by the Lengenfeld cloth makers, while the neighboring Rösenmühle was reserved for the Reichenbach cloth makers. After the city of Mylau had acquired the Mylau manor with the Mylau Castle and the associated lands in 1892 , they also acquired the properties of the Rosen and Schoten mills on the Schneidbacher Flur. The pod mill was leased and shut down in 1895. In the following year, 1896, it burned down. Only the associated pond keeper's house of the fulling mill was preserved and is currently used as a holiday home. To supply the city of Mylau with energy, the municipality built a hydroelectric power station in 1894 on the site of the former Rösenmühle. This was renewed in 1927 and taken out of service in 1976. The power house is still available at the site.

With the opening of the first section of the Lengenfeld – Göltzschtalbrücke railway line in 1903, Schneidbach received a rail connection. The Schneidbach stop was to the west of the village near the “Jägerhaus” settlement in the Göltzsch valley and was not put into operation until the entire line opened in 1905. After the station was closed in 1957, the wooden waiting hall was moved to the place where it served as a bus shelters at the exit of the village in the direction of Weißensand until it was demolished in 1994.

As a result of the second district reform in the GDR , the municipality of Schneidbach became part of Reichenbach in the Chemnitz district (renamed the Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ), which was continued as the Saxon district of Reichenbach from 1990 and became part of the Vogtland district in 1996. In 1970 the local school, built in 1910, was closed. Then the children went to school in Rotschau. Between 1960 and 1990 the LPG "Gesegnetes Land" existed in Schneidbach . On January 1, 1999, Schneidbach was incorporated into the town of Reichenbach in the Vogtland. The new district center is used by several associations and the Reichenbach volunteer fire department.
