history

The place name of the desert does not refer to the geographical location or a historical parcel , but goes back to the surname of the builder of the property. In popular parlance, the original hallway in which the wasteland stands as a place name, foxhole, was therefore retained. The district was created in 1904. At that time, Friedrich Vogel from Holzberndorf built a property on the edge of the Holzberndorf district, which consisted of a house, stable, coach house , apiary and garden.

The naming according to one's own surname originally comes from the absolutist nobility of the 18th century. In the 19th century, the rich bourgeoisie also took up this fashion. For postal reasons, Friedrich Vogel applied to be upgraded to a separate district in 1930. On July 4, 1930, the Scheinfeld district office approved this proposal. After the death of the Vogel couple, the house was only used as a weekend home for the heirs.
