history
The municipality of Sachsenberg-Georgenthal was formed on July 1, 1934 by the merger of Sachsenberg (formed in 1929 from Upper and Lower Saxonyberg) and Georgenthal (with Aschberg and Steindöbra). The five districts emerged in the 17th century and until 1856 were in the Electoral Saxon or Royal Saxon Office of Voigtsberg . After 1856 they belonged to the Klingenthal court office and from 1875 to the Auerbach administration .
Sachsenberg with Upper and Lower Saxonyberg until 1934
Upper and Lower Saxonyberg were founded around 1630 by Protestant religious refugees ( exiles ) from Bohemia , who had to leave their Bohemian homeland in the course of the Counter Reformation .
Until 1855, the manor and patrimonial jurisdiction over Obersachsenberg lay with the Obersachsenberg forest estate. This official estate was first mentioned in 1631. In 1703 nine houses were subordinate to him, in 1790 there were already 15 houses and 44 cottagers. As in the entire Klingenthal area, musical instruments were also made in Obersachsenberg. In the 19th century, the Obersachsenberg forest estate was owned by the family of the instrument maker Johann Wilhelm Rudolph Glier . The upper forest property has been described as an economy since 1893. At present the building is known as the “Hotel Waldgut”, but is temporarily closed.
Untersachsenberg was founded in 1625 by the mining captain Johann Wilhelm Boxberger and Georg Knaspe. The father of the Saxon line of noble family Boxberger is William Boxberger considered (1542-1608), that of Nuremberg from mining in the mountain town Graslitz operating across the border in the Czech Ore Mountains. At the time of the Counter Reformation , his sons moved to the nearby Electorate of Saxony and founded Klingenthal as well as Untersachsenberg . There they founded the first Evangelical Lutheran church in Klingenthal in 1635 . The fact that Untersachsenberg owes its existence to the influx of Protestant religious refugees is also indicated by the name of the district “Glaßentrempel”. It was built in the 18th century by the Bohemian exile family Glaß . Johann Wilhelm Boxberger and Georg Knaspe received inheritance jurisdiction over Untersachsenberg in 1626 . In 1646 Boxberger had acquired Knaspe's share, so that the fiefdom remained in the family's possession for a long time. The fiefdom has been proven to be a manor since 1646 . Under Christian Karl Sigismund von Boxberg, the manor was rebuilt after 1757. Via Louise Auguste von Feilitzsch , née von Boxberg, the estate passed to the von Feilitzsch family. After she had to file for bankruptcy in 1823, the estate was dissolved and sold. After the dissolution of the patrimonial jurisdiction , the lower forest property was owned by the von Reitzenstein family from 1854 , owned by Anna Hüller from 1901 and Reinhard Claß from 1925. Until 1957 the inn "Unteres Waldgut" was operated in the manor on the Kamerunweg. Today the building is privately owned and operated as a zebu farm.
In Sachsenberg mining was carried out on iron ore until the 19th century. The exiles who settled in Ober- and Untersachsenberg brought their skills in making musical instruments with them. This means that violin makers from Sachsenberg can also be found in the 17th and 18th centuries. In the 19th and 20th centuries, as in the entire Klingenthal region, the production of harmonicas prevailed over violins. Adolf Eduard Herold from Untersachsenberg is considered to be the initiator of the harmonica building in the Klingenthal area from 1851. At the turn of the 20th century, numerous companies were based in Ober- and Untersachsenberg. a. Produce harmonica and accordions. A company still producing today is the company CA Seydel Söhne , which, according to the official document, was founded by Christian August Seydel in Untersachsenberg on October 27, 1847.
Another trade in Untersachsenberg was the production of wooden combs. It was introduced in 1829 by Christian Friedrich Goram (* April 18, 1790 - July 17, 1865). Goram was the son of a master violin maker. In the course of the 19th century, it developed into an important branch of industry.
An Evangelical Lutheran parish church was built in Untersachsenberg in 1878 and has since been independent of the Klingenthal church. The parish of (Unter-) Sachsenberg-Georgenthal includes the places Unter- and Obersachsenberg, Mittelberg , Georgenthal, Steindöbra, Aschberg, Mühlleithen and Winselburg. There was also a chapel in the Untersachsenberg manor, in which the Klingenthal pastor had to give official sermons six times a year at the request of the lordship since 1646.
In 1890, Untersachsenberg 2012 and Obersachsenberg had 1,057 inhabitants. With the opening of the electrically operated narrow-gauge railway Klingenthal – Sachsenberg-Georgenthal in 1916, Untersachsenberg received a railway connection with the stops “Glaßentrempel”, “Bärenloch” and the terminus “Untersachsenberg-Georgenthal” (from 1930: “Sachsenberg-Georgenthal”).
Sachsenberg was only formed in 1929 by merging Upper and Lower Saxonyberg. Due to the merger with Georgenthal in 1934, Sachsenberg only existed as an independent municipality for five years.
Georgenthal, Steindöbra and Aschberg until 1934
With the flourishing of mining for copper, tin, lead and silver in the mountain town of Graslitz, five kilometers away on the other side of the Bohemian border, this expanded to the Saxon border region at the end of the 16th century, which resulted in mining in the forests around the 1604 mentioned Klingenthal u. a. of tin and iron took place. Together with miners and hammer smiths, some glassmakers also came to the western Ore Mountains , and they began here to process the quartz that was found in several strands, including on the Aschberg . The vast forests, which had never been used before, provided them with enough wood for the smelting furnaces and for "ashing", the extraction of potash from charcoal .
At the foot of the Aschberg on the Saxon side, a glassworks was built in the valley of the Steindöbra in 1639 on the privilege of the Saxon Elector Johann Georg I. The village of Steindöbra developed from the former glassmaking establishment . Part of the settlement is still called “Die Glashütte” today. The glassworks came to the later electoral Saxon chief miner Hans Carl von Carlowitz around 1700 , who later sold it to the Saxon elector. In 1725 it ceased operations.
The towns of Georgenthal in the Steindöbra valley south of Steindöbra and Aschberg on the Saxon side on the slope of the mountain of the same name were founded in the 17th century by Protestant religious refugees ( exiles ) from Bohemia who left their Bohemian homeland in the course of the Counter-Reformation . In honor of the Saxon Elector Johann Georg I of Saxony , who allowed the exiles to settle in the border area, Georgenthal was named after the Elector. To Georgenthal was u. a. Mining operated on iron ore. The pits “Vitriolstollen”, “Silberzeche”, “Luise Fundgrube”, “Treuefreundschaft Fundgrube” and “Marie Sophie” are named. Furthermore, the “Glaskopf Fundgrube” existed in Steindöbra in Glashütte. In the 19th and early 20th centuries there were several companies in Georgenthal that produced harmonicas.
By the Saxon rural community order of 1838 Steindöbra, Georgenthal and Aschberg formed a rural community with the name "Steindöbra". Since 1905 this was called "Georgenthal". Ecclesiastically, the three places have belonged to the parish (Lower) Sachsenberg-Georgenthal since 1878.
With the opening of the electrically operated narrow-gauge railway Klingenthal – Sachsenberg-Georgenthal in 1916, Georgenthal received a railway connection with the terminus “Untersachsenberg-Georgenthal” (from 1930: “Sachsenberg-Georgenthal”). In the district of Aschberg, Otto-Hermann Böhm founded an association for the construction of a lookout tower on the Saxon side of the Aschberg in 1913. Since the plans could not be implemented for various reasons, they were given up in 1929 to build the youth hostel . The observation tower was not inaugurated until 1999. He got the name from Otto-Hermann Böhm.
Sachsenberg-Georgenthal since 1934
The community Sachsenberg-Georgenthal was formed on July 1, 1934 through the merger of Sachsenberg and Georgenthal. The municipality, which now consists of five districts in three districts, was part of the Auerbach administration. In 1939 there were 5,390 inhabitants and after the end of the war in 1946 5,179 inhabitants lived in the community.
On July 1, 1950, Sachsenberg-Georgenthal was incorporated into Klingenthal, as was the south-bordering Brunndöbra . As a result of the second district reform in the GDR , Sachsenberg-Georgenthal became part of Klingenthal in 1952 and became part of the Klingenthal district in the Chemnitz district (renamed the Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ), which was continued as the Saxon district of Klingenthal in 1990 and became part of the Vogtlandkreis in 1996.
After the closure of the Klingenthal – Sachsenberg-Georgenthal narrow-gauge railway in 1964, buses took over passenger transport in the city of Klingenthal. This enabled the districts of Steindöbra, Aschberg and Obersachsenberg to be integrated.
