history

The place name, which comes from Old Sorbian , goes back to a Slavic root * strona (Eng. "Slope") and thus means "settlement on the slope". The place was first mentioned in 1445 as "Tronicz, das dorff". The current spelling was used for the first time in 1548, and in 1651 the “Dörfgen Thronicz” appears in a document. The spelling “Drohnitz” is found in 1753, in 1791 “Trohniz” and “Thronitz” are documented, in 1825 even “Thrunitz”. In order to distinguish Tronitz from two places of the same name in Saxony, it was named “Tronitz b. Pirna ”. In addition, the spelling “Thronitz” was also used at that time.

The manorial rule in Tronitz was exercised in 1547 by the owners of the Borthen manor . In the 18th century Tronitz was subordinate to the Röhrsdorf manor, which maintained a Vorwerk mentioned in 1753 in the place. The buildings of this large estate north of the street at the western entrance to Tronitz still define the townscape today. To the Vorwerk a Gutssiedlung developed with a 2.5 hooves large Guts block corridor . In 1833 there were nine houses, in 1900 eight houses. Up to the present this number has hardly changed. Heavy fruit growing was already practiced in Tronitz in the 19th century.

The administration of Tronitz was initially the responsibility of the Dohna Department, from the 16th century to the Pirna Department and then to the Pirna Court Department in 1856. On the basis of the rural community code of 1838 , Tronitz gained independence as a rural community . In 1874 this was part of the Pirna administration . On July 1, 1950, Tronitz was incorporated into Gorknitz and was part of the Pirna district from 1952 onwards . On January 1, 1993, the community of Gorknitz merged with Borthen and Röhrsdorf to form the new community of Röhrsdorf. Tronitz has belonged to Dohna since it was incorporated into the city of Dohna on January 1, 1999.
