history
Wendisch-Paulsdorf was mentioned for the first time in the 13th century and was part of the city of Löbau from 1317 onwards. The place name suggests that the settlement originally inhabited by the Slavic Milzeners was redesigned by a German locator. Already in the Middle Ages there is said to have been a manor house, from which in the 16./17. Century the manor emerged. This is first mentioned as such in 1630. The place itself forms a village-like Gutsweiler with later extensions.
To distinguish it from the nearby village of Deutsch-Paulsdorf (today part of Markersdorf bei Görlitz), the addition " Wendisch " was added to the place name around 1700 . The place is parish to Kittlitz . Agriculture has traditionally been of economic importance. There was also a forge and a sawmill in the village, as well as a windmill on the Horken. In 1847 the Görlitz – Dresden railway line was run via Wendisch-Paulsdorfer Flur, but the place itself was not given a train station. The road bridge built over the railroad tracks in this context was blown up in 1983 and replaced by a new building a few meters further west.
In 1884, the scientist Arnošt Muka found that 31 of the 213 residents of Wendisch-Paulsdorf were Sorbs (15%). Here the now extinct Löbauer dialect of Upper Sorbian was spoken. Today only the place name reminds of the Slavic past.
On April 1, 1939, Wendisch-Paulsdorf was incorporated into the neighboring Rosenhain and in this context it was officially renamed Rosenhain II . The name change took place in the spirit of the Germanization policy of the National Socialists in order to disguise the Sorbian origin of the settlement. The GDR took this name change, but later moved to the naming of the district as Rosenhain B . It wasn't until 1985 that the place got its original name back.
On March 1, 1994, the community of Rosenhain and its districts were incorporated into Löbau. Since the reorganization of the urban area on the decision of the Löbau city council on July 7, 2011, most of the formerly independent villages, including Wendisch-Paulsdorf, have been separate districts of the large district town of Löbau.
Manor

The Paulsdorf manor was created in the 17th century from an older manor and was first mentioned in 1630. Until 1709 it belonged to the Lords of Nostitz , then to the Lords of Berge. In 1779 it came into the possession of Henriette Carolina von Rechenberg, who sold it to the Löbauer merchant August Benjamin Mühle in 1800. In 1820 the estate came to Johann Gottlieb Traugott von Leuthold. Later it was again owned by the von Nostitz-Drzewiecki family, and from 1910 by the Dürr family.
The manor house, a simple villa-like building with a hipped roof and an attached veranda in the Italian style, was built in the 18th century as the residence of the respective landowners. Remains of two heraldic cartouches can still be seen above the front door of the farm building, which were probably created around 1760 and show the insignia of the Rechenberg family. In 1885 the building was rebuilt. Around the house was a small manor park, where the palace gardening shop, which existed until 1965, was also located.
In 1946 the manor was expropriated as part of the land reform. During the GDR era, the mansion used a kindergarten, and apartments were housed on the upper floors. Much of the interior was lost due to looting and renovations.
In addition to the manor house, some buildings from the former estate have also been preserved. The employees of the estate used to live in a two-story house with a turret. After 1945 there was a youth club here, then the village consumption and housing. Other farm buildings served as a warehouse for the Löbau rural trading cooperative.
The courtroom , a building that was used as a restaurant until 1940 on what is now the B6 federal road, was one of the accessories of the manor . A coat of arms on the facade, which shows a sheaf of fruit and a plow, reminds of the previous owners of the manor, the von Leuthold family, who were raised to the nobility in 1805. In the immediate vicinity is the former post and relaxation station Wendisch-Paulsdorf, which was once also used to collect road tolls.
Surroundings
- Horken : Not far from the village is the Horken, a small elevation with trees on the summit. The name Horken is derived from the Slavic word for hill. The summit consists of Lusatian granite, which appears on the surface here and has also been mined at times. According to legend, the hilltop was once hollow inside and used by the manor owners as a tea pavilion. Once there was a windmill at the Horken, which was named Zimmermann's mill after its owner. The wooden post mill served the farmers in the area as a grinding mill, as the local rivers did not have sufficient power for a water mill. The mill was demolished around 1950.
- Fork larch : The single tree belonging to the larch genus on the footpath between Wendisch-Paulsdorf and Wendisch-Cunnersdorf is around 350 years old and is a protected natural monument. However, it was badly damaged by storms and lightning.
