history

Church in Spröda

Spröda originally belonged to the free float of the Augustinian Canons of Petersberg, founded in 1124 . This was part of the Margraviate of Meissen and arrived at the Leipzig division of Saxony Electorate in 1485 to the Albertine Duchy of Saxony. In the course of the introduction of the Reformation in 1538/40, the monastic property was secularized and transformed into the lordly office of Petersberg . Spröda became a direct subject village, which was an exclave in the electoral office of Delitzsch .

As a result of the Schmalkaldic War and the Wittenberg surrender in 1547, the Albertine Duchy of Saxony was elevated to the status of Electorate of Saxony, making Spröda part of the Petersberg district for the next 150 years. With the sale of the Petersberg district to Brandenburg-Prussia in 1697, Spröda became a Prussian exclave in the Delitzsch district of Saxony. The place now belonged to the Saalkreis in the Duchy of Magdeburg .

As a result of the Peace of Tilsit , the exclave of Spröda was added to the Kingdom of Westphalia in 1807, like the other West Elbe regions of Prussia . As part of the Saalkreis, the Petersberg office with Spröda was assigned to the Halle district in the Saale department. While the places around the Petersberg came to the canton Löbejün , the exclave Spröda was assigned to the canton Oppin .

After the defeat of Napoléon and the end of the Kingdom of Westphalia in 1813, the Prussian king and his "old provinces" took possession of the Saalkreis and Spröda again. In 1815, this "old property" from before 1807 and the royal Saxon territories acquired by the Congress of Vienna became the province of Saxony . As a result of the reorganization of the Prussian area in 1816, Spröda came to the Delitzsch district with the Delitzsch office ceded by the Kingdom of Saxony , whereby the exclave status and the historical connection with Petersberg ended.

On July 1, 1950, Possdorf was incorporated . In the course of the district reform in the GDR in 1952, Spröda was assigned to the newly tailored Delitzsch district in the Leipzig district, which was added to the Delitzsch district in 1994 . Spröda and Poßdorf have been districts of Delitzsch since January 1, 1997.

Individual evidence

  1. The historical regional directory of Saxony states that Spröda belonged to the Electoral Saxon Office Delitsch for 1791, but there is no other evidence for this apart from this source. Historical maps show the situation around 1807, when Spröda is still an exclave that belongs to the Kingdom of Westphalia.
