history

The place was first mentioned in a document in 1234 as "Drogenauwe". Together with farms in Gattendorf, Trogenau was given to the Himmelkron monastery . Trogenau has been a parish of Regnitzlosau since 1390. After the place had been ruled by the bailiffs of Weida , it came under the rule of the Wettin Saxons in 1435 . As early as 1524, the Electorate of Saxony gave up control of Trogenau and Nentschau to the House of Brandenburg. Since then, the border with Saxony has been running in the north of the town. Together with the entire Regnitzland , Trogenau later came from the Principality of Bayreuth to the Kingdom of Prussia and finally in 1810 to the Kingdom of Bavaria .

In 1846, Nentschau and Trogenau together built a school building halfway between the villages, and in 1901 it was extended.

There are traces of mining activities around Trogenau, which can be documented until 1473. The Saxon princes and the margraves concluded a partition agreement for the precious metals obtained. Some pits were reopened in the 18th century. Anthracite ( hard coal ) and anthraconite ( calcite ) were mined in mountain limestone, and brown iron stone in slate, according to Malter . Coral inclusions in the scarf stone are of scientific interest .
