Seelhausen

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Seelhausen is a modern desert that was located northeast of Delitzsch on the border between Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt and fell victim to lignite mining by the Goitzsche opencast mine in 1987 . Today only the Seelhausen lake reminds of the former village.

Geographical location

The corridor of the former village of Seelhausen is today in the Seelhausen lake south of the Großer Goitzschesees . It is located in the district of North Saxony in the Free State of Saxony on the border with the State of Saxony-Anhalt . Today's Seelhausen Lake, in contrast to the village, also partly belongs to Saxony-Anhalt.

history

In Seelhausen, which until 1815 belonged to the electoral office of Delitzsch , the gentlemen von Schönfeld owned. Through the resolutions of the Congress of Vienna , Seelhausen became part of Prussia and in 1816 was assigned to the Delitzsch district in the Merseburg administrative district of the province of Saxony , to which it belonged until 1952. In the course of the district reform in the GDR in 1952, Seelhausen was assigned to the newly cut Delitzsch district in the Leipzig district.

On December 1, 1973, it was incorporated into the southern neighboring town of Sausedlitz . With the expansion of the Goitzsche opencast mine to the north, Rösa mining field, the community of Sausedlitz with Seelhausen was declared a mining protection area in 1980. The MIBRAG bought in 1983 forcibly forests and arable land. Because of the planned lignite mining, the resettlement of residents in Sausedlitz and Seelhausen began in 1986. While Seelhausen was dredged over ( devastated ) in the following year , Sausedlitz was largely spared this fate due to the political change and the associated change in energy policy. On March 1, 1994, Sausedlitz was incorporated into the community of Löbnitz , making the Seelhausener Flur part of Löbnitz since then.

Seelhausen today

After the flooding of the opencast mine in Seelhausen, which began in 2000 and ended in 2005, the corridor of the village is located in the Seelhausen lake named after the village.
