Location of Seitenhain in Saxony

Seitenhain is a district of the city of Liebstadt in the Saxon Switzerland-Eastern Ore Mountains district in Saxony .

geography

Seitenhain is located south of the Saxon capital Dresden in the Eastern Ore Mountains . From south to north, the watershed between Müglitz and Gottleuba , two left tributaries of the Elbe , runs through the 320-hectare corridor of the village. The village Seitenhain with its ten homesteads and a few other houses is located in a spring basin that slopes steeply to Seidewitz on the plateau between the Müglitz and Seidewitz valleys. The plateau is mostly used for agriculture, steeper slopes are usually forested.

The closest places are Schlottwitz , part of the city of Glashütte , in the west and the Liebstädter districts Großröhrsdorf in the north, hostels in the east and Berthelsdorf in the south. Liebstadt itself is neighboring to the southeast. With the exception of a few meters long section in the Seidewitztal, where Seitenhain borders a parcel of hostels, it is only surrounded by the districts of Liebstadt (in the east and south) and Großröhrsdorf (in the west along the edge of the slopes of the Müglitztal and in the north).

The road from Großröhrsdorf to Berthelsdorf runs through side grove, along which the houses of the village are lined up. Another road leads down into the Seidewitztal. In Seitenhain there is a connection to the regional bus routes Saxon Switzerland-Eastern Ore Mountains (RVSOE) , in Oberschlottwitz to the west to the Heidenau – Kurort Altenberg (Müglitztalbahn) railway .

In 1927 and 1934, a population of the European mouflon was obtained from Augsburg and settled around Seitenhain. It has held up to the present. The Müglitzhang near Schlottwitz to the northwest of Seitenhain, a small part of which is located in the corridor, has been a nature reserve since 1974 and contains old stocks of European yew trees . Trebnitzgrund (southwest) and Mittleres Seidewitztal (northeast) are two other nature reserves in the vicinity. The village seal shows three spruce trees, which indicate the forest in the vicinity of the place.

history

“Saitenhayn” on a map from the Oberreitschen Atlas, mid-19th century

The place was first mentioned in 1455 as "Seypenhain". The place name is of German origin; Eichler and Walther explain it as a combination of the personal name Sig (e) bot with the basic word Hain , which means the place name just like that of the Upper Franconian Seybothenreuth "clearing settlement of a Sig (e) bot". Sig (e) bot is probably the locator who founded the Waldhufendorf in the 13th century during the German settlement in the east . If the personal name can still be guessed in 1465 in "Segypthayn", the syllable "bot" disappeared in 1501 in "Seyttenhayn" due to contraction . Later the place was u. a. mentioned as "Seydenhayn" (1724) and Saitenhayn (1791). To distinguish it from a place of the same name in West Saxony, today's Wechselburg district Seitenhain , in 1875 the term "Seitenhain bei Pirna " was used.

The place was subordinate to the church in today's Müglitztal district of Burkhardswalde . Since 1617/34 it was partially, since 1847 it has been parish entirely to Liebstadt. Seitenhain belonged to the manor Weesenstein , which in turn belonged to the Pirna office . On the basis of the rural community code of 1838 , it gained its independence as a rural community . Since 1875 Seitenhain was part of the Pirna administration , which was renamed the Pirna district in 1939. From 1952 to 1994 it belonged to the Pirna district . In 1973 it was incorporated into Liebstadt .
