history

Stein Öllß is first mentioned in a document in 1528 in the Budissin Lehnsakten.

After 180 years of belonging to Saxony, Steinölsa was in 1815 in the part of Upper Lusatia that the Kingdom of Saxony had to cede to the Kingdom of Prussia as a result of the Congress of Vienna . In the following year, the community was incorporated into the new district of Rothenburg (Ob. Laus.) .

In 1847 the parish was changed from the Gebelziger to the Kollmer Church. In Kollm the students were also taught until Steinölsa got its own teacher in 1913.

The school, built in 1926/1927, burned down in April 1945 due to the effects of the war. Through the administrative reform of 1952 , the municipality was assigned to the Niesky district .

Although the Agricultural Production Cooperative (LPG) was only founded in 1960, Steinölsa was the second fully cooperative village in the district.

Several incorporations took place in the Niesky district in 1973, among other things Steinölsa was incorporated into Sproitz .

In 1991 an Indian ranch was opened that depicts and recreates the life of Native Americans .

On March 1, 1994, the communities of Kollm and Sproitz merged to form the community of Quitzdorf am See , which made Steinölsa a part of it.

When the country was examinated in 1777, 1 possessed man , 4 gardeners and 8 cottagers were reported for Steinölsa .

Between 1825 and 1925 the population doubled from 109 to 222, after which a slight decrease was noted until the beginning of the war. After the war ended, refugees and displaced persons were taken in, so that the population rose to 280 in October 1946. In the following 25 years there was a clear decline, so that in 1971 only 193 inhabitants were recorded. Thirty years later Steinölsa had around 150 inhabitants.

In the 19th century, the Sorbs made up a large proportion of the population. In 1863 125 of the 206 inhabitants were Sorbs (61%), around 1880 the Sorbian scientist Arnošt Muka found 100 Sorbs (53%) among the 188 inhabitants.

Place name

The place name -ölsa is derived from the Old Sorbian Ol'šina , alder forest '( Upper Sorbian wólšina ) , as is the case with neighboring Oelsa and the small Oelsa to the north-west of Klitten .

Documented forms of the place name include Stein Öllß (1528), Klein-Oelsa (1638), Stein Oelsa (1732) and Steinölsa (1842). The addition stone serves to distinguish it from the neighboring town and refers to its location on the stony Kolmberg.

As part of the Germanization policy of place names of Slavic origin, the place was given a new name in 1936 - like Oelsa and Klein-Oelsa. In contrast to the other two places, only the basic word was translated when changing from Steinölsa to Steinerlen . In 1947, as with most of the renamed places in the Rothenburg district, the formal renaming took place.

The Sorbian place name is written down as Kamentna Woleschniczka (1800), Wolschinka (1835), Kaḿjeńtna Wólšinka (1831) and Kamjeńtna Wólšinka (1959). In addition to the additional name prefix, the place name also differs from the Sorbian name of the neighboring village of Oelsa (Wolšina) by the diminutive suffix -k .
