history
13th to 18th centuries
The 1214 first mentioned Waldhufendorf faithful received the 1390 city law . The castle, mentioned in documents as "Drewen" in the 11th century , was built by the bailiffs of Plauen on a rock spur above the Treuenschen Wasser in the course of the state development. It served to protect and manage their clearing villages. The settlement of Treuen initially began on the southern slope of the Treba valley , after 1200 the northern slope was also settled and the church with the associated parish was founded. When the rule of Plauen was divided into the houses Plauen-Older Line and Plauen-Reuss in 1306, Treuen came to the Reuss line in 1306 . Treuen Castle was transferred to Vogt Heinrich von Plauen in 1329 as an imperial feud from Emperor Ludwig the Bavarian . In 1367, Emperor Charles IV enfeoffed him again as King of Bohemia with Treuen Castle.
In 1510, the Imperial Knight Jobst von Feilitzsch received the castle and rule of Treuen von Kunz von Hermannsgrün on Kürbitz and Unterlauterbach . The castle was destroyed before the Thirty Years War (1618 to 1648). Within the von Feilitzsch family, the property was divided into the upper part of the manors Treuen (Schlossweg 1, Treuen) and the lower part (Schreiersgrüner Str. 2, Treuen), which from then on exercised the lordship over Treuen. The division into the mansions Treuen upper and lower part was finally completed with the loan letters of 1612. The von Feilitzsch family had a representative manor house built on the walls of the former Treuen Castle (upper part) between 1608 and 1610. The lower part of the Treuen manor, on the other hand, emerged from an outbuilding that originally belonged to Treuen Castle. Between 1608 and 1610 Urban von Feilitzsch built a manor house made of half-timbered houses on the grounds of the Vorwerk, today's Treuen Castle, lower part. While the upper manor remained in the possession of the von Feilitzsch family in the 19th century, the lower manor came to the middle-class Adler family in 1810, who had already taken over the neighboring Unterlauterbach manor in 1744 .
19th century to the present
Until 1856, Treuen belonged to the Electoral Saxon or later Royal Saxon Office of Plauen , to which the place was subject until 1856. In 1856 the city became the seat of the Treuen court office . In 1875 it was incorporated into the Auerbach administration . During the founding period , Treuen experienced its heyday when the number of companies and shops increased sharply as a result of industrialization . The pre-industrial development of weaving began as early as the 18th century. On November 1, 1865, the city of Treuen received a train station connection to the Herlasgrün – Oelsnitz line . Between April and July 1945 Treuen, like the rest of the Saxon Vogtland, was occupied by American troops until the town was annexed to the Soviet occupation zone . In the course of the land reform in the Soviet zone of occupation from 1945 onwards, the last owners of the Treuen manors, upper and lower parts, were expropriated and the land was divided up among new farmers . The lower part of Treuen Castle was made ready for the billeting of resettlers by 1947 , while the surrounding farm buildings were demolished.
Through the second district reform in the GDR , the city of Treuen became part of Auerbach in the Chemnitz district in 1952 (renamed the Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ), which was continued as the Saxon district of Auerbach in 1990 and became part of the Vogtland district in 1996. The Treuen Castle below part was sold by the city of Treuen to a descendant of the last owner in 1993, but his plans to build a hotel failed. In 2003, the "Friends of Treuen Castle" auctioned the lower part of Treuen Castle in order to stop the further structural deterioration of the castle. Then the renovation of the building began. While the lower part of Treuen Castle is now used by the Friends' Association for various events, the upper part of the Treuen manor is now used for private residential purposes. The farm buildings in the upper part of Treuen are used today by the "Gut Treuen" farm. After the reunification , four industrial areas were created in the north and north-west of Treuen near the A 72 .

Town twinning

Culture and sights
The oldest building by Treuen is the steeple of the St. Bartholomäi town church. The lowest part of the tower in Romanesque style was built at the end of the 12th century. In 1514 the church was extended by a nave . In a town fire in 1806, the entire church was destroyed except for parts of the tower. During the Napoleonic occupation, the church was rebuilt in the classical style.
At the time of the late Renaissance that arose Treuener Castle . It consists of a solid ground floor, two further floors with half-timbered porch and a stair tower with an octagon and a curved dome. After the fall of the Wall, the building was threatened with decay. This was avoided by donations from a support association and a gradual renovation of the property was initiated.
On the Eicher Spange in the direction of Lengenfeld , a restored Royal Saxon milestone in the form of a branch stone from the period 1859-66 was set up again in November 2013 .
A striking vantage point near Treuen is the 20 meter high Perlaser Tower, built in 1907 on Wilhelmshöhe. Next to the tower is a station point of the Royal Saxon Triangulation from 1876.
The Jewish writer Auguste Lazar from Dresden created a literary memorial to the murdered Jewish women (see → Memorials ) with her book “Die Brücke von Weißensand”, published in 1963.
On May 30, 1958, the Friedrich-Ludwig-Jahn Stadium, the home of the BSG Progress Treuen and the Treuener Athletics Club, was inaugurated.
Infrastructure and economy
True is on the motorway 72 (leaving true) and the in rail transport of the Vogtlandbahn operated railway Herlasgrün-Falkenstein .
