history

View of Steudten

The square village of Steudten was mentioned in 1325 under the name of Steyten . With regard to the manorial rule , Steudten belonged to the Electoral Saxon or Royal Saxon Office of Rochlitz until 1856 as an official village . Ecclesiastically the place has always been parish after Seelitz. The offices were dissolved during the administrative reforms carried out in the Kingdom of Saxony in the 19th century . As a result, Steudten came under the administration of the Rochlitz court office in 1856 and in 1875 under the newly established Rochlitz administration . With the opening of the Penig - Rochlitz section of the Glauchau – Wurzen (Muldentalbahn) railway line , Steudten received a train station on May 29, 1876, which only lost this status with the cessation of sand loading in 1979.

On July 1, 1950, the surrounding towns of Biesern , Zaßnitz , Fischheim , Sörnzig and Seebitzschen with Zöllnitz were incorporated into Steudten. As a result of the second district reform in the GDR in 1952, the municipality of Steudten and its districts were incorporated into the Rochlitz district in the Chemnitz district (renamed the Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ), which was continued as the Saxon district of Rochlitz from 1990 and was newly formed in 1994 District Mittweida and in 2008 in the District Central Saxony. With the incorporation of the municipality of Steudten into Seelitz, Steudten and its districts, without Zaßnitz, which has been reclassified to Rochlitz, have been districts of the greater municipality of Seelitz since January 1, 1994. On June 9, 2001, due to the poor condition of the superstructure of the Muldentalbahn, the last trains ran between Rochlitz and Wechselburg , which meant that the Steudten stop also went out of service. Since 2010 the association Sächsischer Eisenbahnfreunde e. V. (VSE, headquarters in Schwarzenberg in the Erzgebirge) on weekends regular tourist traffic on this section of the route with the so-called Schienentrabi .
