history

Seitenhain, upper district

The Waldhufendorf Seitenhain was mentioned in 1182 as Sigebotenhagen . The place name means “Sigebots place surrounded by forest”. Seitenhain belonged to the clearing area that was assigned to the Zschillen monastery in 1174 . However, the place could have been founded earlier. Originally the place belonged to the property of the Zschillen monastery . This came in 1543 with the entire property to Duke Moritz von Sachsen , who immediately secularized it and exchanged it for the Lords of Schönburg for the places Hohnstein , Wehlen and Lohmen in today's Saxon Switzerland . Therefore, the name Wechselburg came up for the place and the monastery complex. Since then Seitenhain has been run as an official village of the Schönburg lordship of Wechselburg , which belonged to the Lords of Schönburg under Wettin suzerainty. In terms of church, Seitenhain has always been part of Wechselburg.

As part of the administrative reorganization of the Kingdom of Saxony, Seitenhain was subordinated to the administration of the royal Saxon office of Rochlitz as part of the Schönburg feudal lordship of Wechselburg in 1835 . In 1856 Seitenhain came to the Rochlitz court office and in 1875 to the newly established Rochlitz District Administration .

Through the second district reform in the GDR in 1952, the municipality Seitenhain was incorporated into the Rochlitz district in the Chemnitz district (renamed the Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ). On April 6, 1972, Seitenhain was incorporated into Nöbeln , with which the place belonged to the Saxon district of Rochlitz since 1990 . This went up in 1994 in the Mittweida district and in 2008 in the central Saxony district. On January 1, 1994, Nöbeln and its four districts were incorporated into Wechselburg, making Seitenhain a district of Wechselburg ever since.
