Tiefenau was first mentioned in a document on July 19, 1013. In 1272 the first mention of a church near the sheep farm was mentioned. Originally Tiefenau belonged to the Naumburg bishops . Bishop Ludolf sold the castle and town in 1284, subject to suzerainty, to Heinrich the Illustrious . Under Emperor Charles IV , the estate and village came to the Niederlausitzer Landvogtei , from which both were later separated again and came into the possession of the von Köckeritz family . In 1422 Alisch von Köckeritz owned the place. The von Bünau family bought the estate in the 15th century . In 1495 the church belonged to the prepopoly Grossenhain and had to pay a mark of bishop interest. In 1555 the church was a branch church of Spansberg. The children went to the Spansberg school. There was a Vorwerk in the village . In 1588 there were no more farmers in Tiefenau. The sheep farm was leased around 1619. The pastor received 40 bushels of grain from the manor . Below the mill, a new pond was built in 1635 , which is damaging to Coselitz . In 1637 six threshing houses burned down when the Swedes invaded the area during the Thirty Years' War . In 1642 the place suffered again from the war. The manor was devastated by the Swedes and burned down. In 1648 an inventory of the manor included the villages of Spansberg, Röderau and half of the village of Pulsen.
In 1696 an ancient manor is mentioned. The rule exercised inheritance and higher jurisdiction. There is evidence that Tiefenau has been part of the Grossenhain office since 1696 . In 1837 the Tiefenau children switched from the Spansberg school to the Lichtensee school according to an ordinance issued by the Royal Dresden District Administration. The Tiefauer farmers were initially reluctant because they still had to pay school fees to maintain the Spansberg school. From 1856 the place was under the jurisdiction of Grossenhain and from 1875 to the governor of Grossenhain . In the 17th century the village and estate passed into the possession of the von Pflugk family and was elevated to a majorate . It remained in their possession with small breaks until 1945. After 1945 the castle was blown up. Saxons came after the Second World War in the Soviet zone of occupation and later the GDR . After the territorial reform in 1952 , Tiefenau was assigned to the Riesa district in the Dresden district . On November 1, 1952, Tiefenau was incorporated into Lichtensee. After the German reunification , the place came to the re-established Free State of Saxony. The following regional reforms in Saxony assigned Tiefenau to the Riesa-Großenhain district in 1994 and to the Meißen district in 2008 . On January 1, 1994, Lichtensee was incorporated with the district Tiefenau to form the municipality of Wülknitz.
regional customs
Until after the Second World War, the old custom of pretzel singing on Sunday Latars was maintained in Tiefenau . Children walked through the village with pine branches about three feet long and decorated with colored ribbons at the top, singing the summer-summer Meier song from house to house and were rewarded with pretzels. Most recently, elementary school teacher Vogel from the Lichtensee elementary school practiced the song with the children. This custom was last carried out in 1963 on the occasion of the 950th anniversary of Tiefenau, but it was successfully revived in the neighboring town of Peritz .
Culture and sights
One of the most beautiful baroque country manors in Saxony was located in Tiefenau. In 1948 the castle was blown up, the park and the castle church were preserved.
Tiefenau baroque garden
The baroque garden was built between 1705 and 1710. It has four single-storey garden pavilions with a mansard roof and is enclosed by a three-meter-high wall. In the symmetrical system there are five sandstone fountains in the axes of the paths. In 1955, the community and committed citizens from Tiefenau and Lichtensee began restoring the baroque garden in Tiefenau. The original floor plans have been restored. About 6,500 roses and box hedges were planted to border the individual beds. The wells were exposed and put back into operation. This is how the rose garden was created from around 1955 to 1957. A reshaped English landscape park and a cultivated pond area with a network of paths adjoin the baroque garden .
Tiefenau Castle Chapel
After the death of her husband, the Countess and Oberhofmarschallin von Pflugk, nee. Stubenberg, built the castle chapel in 1716, the interior of which has been preserved almost unchanged. Master builders from the Dresden court were also involved in the construction. At the Reformation Festival in 1717, the chapel was consecrated by the then court preacher Pipping . The organ comes from Gottfried Silbermann . Inside the church is equipped with a pulpit altar, flanked by two imitation marble columns. The female figures symbolize faith (with a cross) and hope (with an anchor). Like the design of the stucco ceiling, altar and column capitals, they come from the school of Balthasar Permoser . The column capitals have bulges adorned with acanthus leaves below the capitals. A special feature is the three-part patronage box. It bears the coat of arms of the von Pflugk and von Dölau families. The Pflugk family probably did not have the money for renovation work, but the church was also damaged by the effects of war and looting.
In 1948 the castle was blown up. The graves of the von Pflugk family on the south side of the chapel are still preserved. In the following years the building was left to decay. After the first security measures were taken on the chapel in 1945, renovation work began in 1962 with limited funds. This was work on the facade, roof and windows. The renovation and restoration began in 1989. The carvings and coloring are still original from the 18th century. What was destroyed was carefully supplemented and renewed. The Silbermann organ was reconstructed from 1996 to 1997. Organ concerts have taken place regularly since then.
