War memorial

history

The village of Serbitz was first mentioned in a document in 1308. On February 26, 1308, Heinricus de Vlogelsberch , a representative of a sideline of the Burgraves of Altenburg without male heirs, in his will, assigned his imperial fiefs in Serbitz (Serewicz) to the brothers of the Teutonic Order in Altenburg with the condition that his wife Kunigunde, born his wife Hersveld of their life each year 16 Mark as jointure to give (interest).

Later the place belonged to the Wettin office of Altenburg , which from the 16th century was under the sovereignty of the following Ernestine duchies due to several divisions in the course of its existence : Duchy of Saxony (1554 to 1572), Duchy of Saxony-Weimar (1572 to 1603), Duchy of Saxony -Altenburg (1603 to 1672), Duchy of Saxony-Gotha-Altenburg (1672 to 1826).

In Serbitz a total of 5 farms were victims of a fire in 1581. In 1637, 1656, 1766, 1783 and 1813, Serbitz was again struck by fire. Two people died in the last fire. In 1633 the plague raged in Serbitz, a total of 98 people died. Some families have been completely wiped out. In the 19th century, cattle breeding in the village of Serbitz was the most important in the area, as the fertile meadows, which make up half of the land on the Serbitz Flur, provided fodder in abundance. The Leipzig-Altenburger Chaussee (now the B 93) has been running directly through the town since the 1850s; before that, it followed the route via Thräna to Kleintreben.

When the Ernestine Duchies were reorganized in 1826, Serbitz came to the re-established Duchy of Saxony-Altenburg. After the administrative reform in the duchy, Serbitz belonged to the eastern district (until 1900) and to the Altenburg district office (from 1900). From 1918 the village belonged to the Free State of Saxony-Altenburg , which was added to the State of Thuringia in 1920. Since 1922 it was subordinate to the Altenburg district . In 1952 the place came to the Altenburg district in the Leipzig district .

In July 1954 Serbitz was threatened by floods. Families and animals had to be evacuated. As a result of the flood, the Pleiße was reburied and has not flowed directly through the place since then.

On May 1, 1965, Serbitz was incorporated into Treben . Since then Serbitz has been part of Treben.

In August 2002 Serbitz was hit by the great flood. A dam threatened to break, so the federal highway 93 had to be dredged at around 100 meters in order to drain the water. On June 2, 2013, the residents of Serbitz were evacuated because of the impending dam break due to the flood. After the dam leaked at 50 meters, the water reached Serbitz in the early morning hours of June 3, 2013.
