history

Hof in Wittgendorf

The Rundweiler Wittgendorf was mentioned in 1288 as "Gelferadus de Wittechendorf miles", which indicates a manor house . With regard to the manorial rule, Wittgendorf was until 1856 as an administrative village under the electoral or royal Saxon office of Rochlitz . The church was originally parish to Breitenborn , later to Wechselburg . The offices were dissolved during the administrative reforms carried out in the Kingdom of Saxony in the 19th century . As a result, Wittgendorf came under the administration of the Rochlitz court office in 1856 and in 1875 under the newly established Rochlitz administration .

On July 1, 1950, Wittgendorf was incorporated into Breitenborn. As a result of the second district reform in the GDR in 1952, Wittgendorf was incorporated into the Geithain district in the Leipzig district as part of the Breitenborn community , which was continued as the Geithain district of Saxony from 1990 . On August 1, 1994, it was reclassified to the newly formed Mittweida district , which was added to the Central Saxony district in 2008. With the incorporation of the municipality of Breitenborn into Rochlitz, Breitenborn and Wittgendorf became districts of Rochlitz on January 1, 1995.
