geography

Wildenhain is on the border between Saxony and Thuringia between Lucka in Altenburger Land in the west and Regis-Breitingen in the east. The Schnauder runs east of the village , behind it is the Haselbacher See , which separates Wildenhain from Regis-Breitingen. Wildenhain is located in the central German lignite mining area , due to which the place was surrounded on several sides by opencast mines at the time of active lignite mining. Today these areas have been renatured, only in the north is the United Schleenhain opencast mine still active.

history

Wildenhain was first mentioned in a document in 1448. A manor is in place u. a. mentioned in the years 1569, 1696 and 1716. The manor house that exists today was built around 1880. It was renovated after 1990. Previous owners were u. a. the families von Bünau , Röhling, von Milkau , Hörnig, Joseph and von Bärenstein. In 1891 it was bought by Zacharias August Kamprad, whose family owned it until 1903. Famous great grandson of Kamprad is IKEA founder Ingvar Kamprad . In 1903 Otto Naumann bought the Wildenhain estate, whose descendant Ernst Naumann owned the estate until it was expropriated in 1945.

Wildenhain, like its neighboring towns of Hagenest and Nehmitz, was an exclave to the Hochstift-Naumburg- Zeitz office of Zeitz until 1815 , which had been under Electoral Saxon sovereignty since 1561 and belonged to the secondary school- principality of Saxony-Zeitz between 1656/57 and 1718 . With the appointment of the Electorate of Saxony to the Kingdom , Wildenhain belonged to the Kingdom of Saxony from 1806 . In 1814 the Naumburg-Zeitzer Stiftsgebiet was dissolved as part of the Kingdom of Saxony under Governor General Nikolai Grigoryevich Repnin-Volkonsky . After Napoleon's defeat , the Kingdom of Saxony, allied with him, had to cede a large part of its territory, including the Zeitz office, to the Kingdom of Prussia following the resolution of the Congress of Vienna in 1815 . The eastern enclave locations, i.e. H. the Breitingen office with Regis, Breitingen and Blumroda and the Zeitz offices of Nehmitz, Hagenest and Wildenhain remained with Saxony and were incorporated into the neighboring Borna office.

In 1856 the village and manor Wildenhain came to the Borna court office and in 1875 to the Borna district administration . At the beginning of the 20th century, lignite mining began around Wildenhain. In 1898 a lignite plant opened in the neighboring town of Ramsdorf. In the middle of the 20th century, several large open-cast mines were opened around Wildenhain. These were the opencast mines Ruppersdorf (1944–1957) and Phönix-Ost (1940–1963) in the south, the Haselbach opencast mine (1955–1977) in the east and the Schleenhain opencast mine (1949–1994) in the north. The latter has been continued as the United Schleenhain opencast mine since 1994 . Due to the renaturation of the Haselbach opencast mine, the Haselbacher See was created east of Wildenhain .

On October 1, 1948, Wildenhain was incorporated into Hagenest , with which it came to the Borna district in the Leipzig district in 1952 and to Ramsdorf on August 1, 1973 . In 1990 Wildenhain belonged again as part of the municipality of Ramsdorf to the Saxon district of Borna, which was added to the district of Leipziger Land in 1994 . With the incorporation of Ramsdorf into Regis-Breitingen on January 1, 1999, Ramsdorf with Hagenest and Wildenhain became part of the city of Regis-Breitingen.
