history

Wolfsgrün was first mentioned in 1536 as Hammerwerk Oberblauenthal (later also "the Rothe Hammer"). This hammer was created by the Nuremberg pewter dealer Andreas Blau around 1530.
August Schumann writes about the creation of the hammer:

“We can give the following notes about the establishment and the age of this ironworks. It was in 1518 when a Nuremberg family named Blau was staying in the village of Sosa, including Andreas and Balthasar Blau, who were strong publishers of all the zwitterzechen in the area, and sent the pewter they had traded to Nuremberg. They finally settled down in Sosa, bought goods, and Andreas Blau got the Freihof Sosa with all accessories through marriage. Blau and his consorts then attached themselves to the Mulde, and gave the area the name Blauthal (Blauenthal). The current Hammergut Wolfsgrün (or Oberblauenthal) is located above only 1/4 hour away from the same, which also built intended Blaue, and there, like in Unterblauenthal, put a hammer on. Enough, the founders of the two hammer mills are the Nuremberg traders Blaue. It is not known for sure how long the Blauer family held Unterlauenthal. The Stegel family can be found as owners as early as 1630. This came from Bohemia to Saxony, and one Friedrich Siegel, owner of the plant, gave the Saxon government a thousand trays of wood in 1669. Later this work came to the Schädlich family, from whom Johann Heinrich Hennig bought it in 1742 as a cadukes hammer mill. It is currently owned by the wife of Wittbe of the hammer lord Heinrich Ludwig Hennig, who also owns the Freihof zu Sosa and the manor of Frankenhausen. In 1797 the owner of this hammer mill at that time, with 2 hammer mill owners in community, bought the justice of the dump hammer itself. "

According to the source-critical studies by Walter Fröbe , the hammer in Wolfsgrün was first mentioned around 1570. Its builder was probably Hans Dietz from Schneeberg, who sold the hammer to Jacob Roth in 1587.

The place emerged from the hammer mill that had belonged to the King of Saxony as domain possession since 1809. With the exclusion of the hammer mill justice , which the tax authorities had collected with the associated deputation to Kohlholz in 1817, and with the exclusion of the hereditary forest, which had been part of the state forests since that year, Wolfsgrün was sold to the von Elterlein brothers on Rittersgrün .

At the Wolfsgrün hammer mill at the beginning of the 19th century there was a blast furnace , a rod and a tin fire, a Zainhammer and a tin house. There was also a mansion, a mill, a farrier and the farm buildings, but these were smaller than usual in hammer mills. Eight houses with about 80 inhabitants belonged to the place, over which the owner was entitled to inheritance courts, which were co-administered by the Schwarzenberg district office since 1817. The Wolfsgrüner went to church in Eibenstock.

By order of the King of Saxony, an iron foundry was established in Wolfsgrün in 1810. There they made all kinds of ovens, roasting tubes, cooking stoves, oven hobs, anvils, forge molds, fire grates for lime kilns , coal and peat firing, pots, weights, mortars, water pans, kettles, scrapers, inscriptions on monuments, railings, shaft cones and bearings for mills, Oil mallets and pounding fodder, machine items for spinning mills, vases, flat bells, candlesticks, busts, etc.

In the middle of the 19th century, a wood pulp and paper factory was set up that still exists today.

In 1937 Wolfsgrün was incorporated into Blauenthal and with this in 1994 to Eibenstock.

Wolf green castle

The mansion of the Bretschneider family of manufacturers was designed in 1904 by the architect Oswald Haenel . After the Bretschneider family moved out, it was used as a maternal rest home for the National Socialist People's Welfare (NSV) and also as the German Central Archive for genealogy. During the GDR era it was first the SED district school " Rosa Luxemburg " and then a vacation home for SED members. After German reunification, it has been operated as the Hotel Wolfsgrüner Schlößchen since 1994 .

The Eibenstock districts of Blauenthal , Wolfsgrün and Neidhardtsthal have had a common local logo since 2012 . The elements of water, hammer mills, hydropower and mining reflect the historical and current events of the places.

The logo is divided into two parts. The upper part is kept in green. Three black hammers on the right symbolize the hammer mansions of the three districts. The water wheel on the left symbolizes the water power, which z. B. at the dam of the Eibenstock dam in Neidhardtsthal is still used today. The lower blue field is separated from the upper field in a wave shape. This symbolizes the Zwickauer Mulde , which flows through all three districts. In the blue field there are hammers and mallets in a crossed shape, symbolic of mining in the region.

In Wolfsgrün there is a large sewage treatment plant that also processes the wastewater from Eibenstock, Schönheide and Stützengrün. To ensure the water quality of the Eibenstock drinking water dam, a tunnel almost five kilometers long was put into operation in 2000, through which the wastewater from Eibenstock, Schönheide and Stützengrün around the dam is channeled directly into the Wolfsgrün sewage treatment plant.

Industry

The company Bretschneider based in Wolfsgrün was founded in 1829 as a mill and paper factory by Gottlieb Bretschneider in Wolfsgrün. Due to the social conditions in the GDR , state participation had to be taken up in 1959. In 1972 the company was expropriated. In 1976 the company was connected to the VEB packaging plant in Schwarzhammermühle. After the end of the GDR , Bretschneider & Hartmann KG was reprivatised on July 1, 1990. In October 1990 the "Bretschneider Verpackungen GmbH" was founded by the shareholders of the KG. This took over the entire production area of ​​the KG on January 1st, 1991. On the same date, Zewawell Ag & CO. KG, today DS Smith Packaging . Today the company has 35 employees and is run by the founder's great-great-granddaughter.
