history

Seerhausen is mentioned for the first time as Serusne in a document from 1170 (Reinhardus de Serusne, document book of the Hochstift Naumburg I). The name could be of Slavic origin, from the Slavic plant name Zerucha or Zerus = rabbit foot, cress, field flower . The German ending -hausen speaks against this , so that the place name comes from its presumably first owner (one of the old Seer family). Seerhausen was an old literary manor.

From 1293 to 1728, without exception, members of the von Schleinitz family had the manor and the town of Seerhausen under their rule. The first - Heinrich von Schleinitz - is mentioned by Johann Friedrich Gauhe . The last family member with the Seerhausen fiefdom was Johanne Charlotte von Schleinitz, wife of Christoph Dietrich Bose the Younger . Thomas Freiherr von Fritsch , the famous Hubertusburg Minister of Peace, bought the Seerhausen manor in 1728. The property remained in his family until it was expropriated by the land reform in the GDR . Seerhausen Castle, presumably 1000 years old , was blown up on March 23, 1949.

From 1704 to 1725 there was a post office on the Leipzig - Dresden postal route , which was then moved to Stauchitz . In 1938 the districts of Groptitz and Kalbitz were incorporated into Seerhausen. After the district reform in the GDR , Seerhausen no longer belonged to Oschatz, but to the Riesa district. On October 1, 1996 Seerhausen was incorporated into the community of Plotitz . In 1999, the municipality of Stauchitz was formed by the municipal area reform laws in Saxony.
