history
Origin of name
The place is based on a Germanic settlement. The name Teichwolframsdorf was first mentioned in 1278. If one looks at the coat of arms and the place name "Teichwolframsdorf", one could come to the assumption that there were many ponds in Teichwolframsdorf and that wolves lived in the forests around them. A "Wolvram" must have settled in this area as early as 1209. This suggests that this place was founded by a “wolf (e) ram” (different spellings appear). Other documented mentions show that it was the Wolframsdorf dynasty, to which the "Wolvram" named in 1209 probably already belonged. The similarly named places Wolfersdorf, Wolframsdorf, Forstwolfersdorf belonged to this wealthy family in the area. To differentiate between the goods, the respective possessions were given an addition such as “pond”. This thesis is strengthened by the fact that "Teych" was a typical nickname of the "Wolframsdorfer". M. Reiser refers to Old High German , in which “Teych” goes back to “Dicho” (old high German (gi) dihan - to flourish, grow). In the years 1403 "Teych von Wolvramsdorf" and 1411 "unszer getrewer Teych sat zu Wolfframstorff" are mentioned in the old sources.
Another thesis was put forward in Heimatbote 2/88, which, however, does not seem very valid. In 1313, for example, “Luppold von Wolfframsdorf”, who was the owner of the Teichwolframsdorf manor from 1278 to 1313, was named as “Piscina miles in Wolframsdorf” in a Latin source. Because “piscina” (Latin) means “tich” in Middle High German, the thesis is that Luppold, to put it simply, was the “Wolframsdorfer vom Teich”, ie the Teichwolframsdorfer. This implies that “pond” does not come from the name “Teych”, but from a body of water, as most of today's citizens assume. However, two things are overlooked here. Firstly, the term “miles” (Latin for soldier, knight) was not taken into account in the interpretation - and Luppold was a knight if he owned a manor. Secondly, it must also be noted that even in the late Middle Ages people tried to translate personal names into foreign languages (e.g. Latin) when it was appropriate. The comparison lags, but it would be like trying to translate the German name "Rosa" into English, ie "Pink". One can thus assume that “teych”, because it is very similar to “tich”, was simply translated into Latin as “piscina”. Then the term “Piscina miles in Wolframsdorf” also makes more sense. Because then the mention would mean nothing else than "The Knight Teych von Wolframsdorf".
There is much to suggest that Teichwolframsdorf did not get its name from bodies of water and animals, but rather from a medieval knight family.
Territorial Affiliations
Teichwolframsdorf already belonged to the Electorate of Saxony in the Holy Roman Empire of the German nation ( Weida office in the Neustädter Kreis ). Nothing changed during the French Revolution and the Napoleonic era . It was not until the age of restoration and the fortunes of the Congress of Vienna that Saxony had to accept territorial losses as a result of the Polish-Saxon question. Thus Teichwolframsdorf came as an exclave of the Neustadt district to the Grand Duchy of Saxony-Weimar-Eisenach , within which it was assigned to the Neustadt / Orla administrative district in 1850 .
With the end of the First World War in 1918 and the subsequent establishment of the Weimar Republic, the place came under the jurisdiction of the Free State of Saxony-Weimar-Eisenach , which was founded in the same year , after the constitutional-monarchical principle in Germany came to an end. On May 1, 1920, the state of Thuringia was founded, to which Teichwolframsdorf was affiliated within the district of Greiz (since 1922). Even under Hitler, the village remained in Thuringia and the district of Greiz. Only in the course of the administrative reform in the GDR in 1952, with which the states such as Thuringia were dissolved, the place became part of one of the 15 newly founded government and administrative districts: the district of Gera . It remained in the Greiz district . In lockstep with German reunification on October 3, 1990, Thuringia was re-established as a Free State to which the village belonged again. Even after the Thuringian district reform of 1994, the place remained in the district of Greiz to this day.

Established businesses
The worsted textile industry was at home in Teichwolframsdorf until the company closed in 2012/13. This marked the end of a 160-year-old tradition that began with the founding of Carl-Friedrich-Windisch AG on November 25, 1847. At the wedding in 1927/28, the spinning mill had around 630 workers. But a short time later the world market prices for wool and yarn fell, so that Carl-Friedrich-Windisch AG had to file for bankruptcy in 1932, not least because of the global economic crisis in 1929.
In 1933/34 the company came into Swiss ownership (fashion house Simonius Vischer, Basel), although the company name C.-F.-Windisch AG was retained. During National Socialism, the Teichwolframsdorfer Spinnerei fulfilled yarn orders for the German Labor Front. During the Second World War, yarn production became increasingly difficult. As a result of wool import difficulties, people started producing substitute yarns (e.g. paper yarns). In the last months of the war, work was only sporadic. Recently there was even a temporary closure. During this time an internment camp for foreigners (mainly Italians) was set up for a short time.
In the post-war period, the factory's modern steam engine was used to maintain the power supply in Teichwolframsdorf (feed-in duration of approx. 14 hours a day). The company was then run privately until 1951, before the Teichwolframsdorfer spinning mill was nationalized as a state-owned operation of the GDR (VVB wool and silk). From 1970 (until 1990) the textile site was administratively part of the VEB Zwickau worsted yarn spinning mills. Since then, mainly mixed yarns (55% PE and 45% WO) have been produced, which were then processed into woven fabrics for uniforms of the NVA, railways, post offices and police.
At the beginning of 1991 the last yarn was unwound and the company closed. In 1992 the plant in Teichwolframsdorf was re-privatized and modernized and reopened as part of what was then Südwolle AG (today Südwolle GmbH & Co.KG). From 1992 to 2012/13, Südwolle GmbH & Co.KG produced on the approximately three hectare site. Mainly pure new wool (100% WO) was used. On July 18, 2012, the employees were informed of the closure of the spinning mill in Teichwolframsdorf.
