In the area of Zscheila, planes and marl stones from the Cretaceous period overlay the Meissen granite .
history
The place name, which comes from Slavonic , was mentioned for the first time when a document named an “ ecclesia ” in “Schilow”, “Csilowe” or “Csilouwe” in 1180. In the following centuries the spellings “Tzilowe”, “Czschilaw”, “Zscheilow”, “Tscheyl” and “Zscheulaw” were used. The name can be traced back to the Old Sorbian personal name Čił and would therefore mean “settlement of Čił”. Possibly it has the same origin as the Czech Čilec .
The loose farming hamlet , which was probably founded by the Sorbs , was located in a block and striped area about 115 hectares in size , on which the residents farmed. In Zscheila, the Hayner (Großenhainer) road toll, first mentioned in 1436, was levied, as several connecting roads between villages on the right bank of the Elbe gathered at the foot of the Zscheilberg (Fürstenberg).
The church, first mentioned in 1180, had a branch church in nearby Zadel until 1230 . The church in Zscheila was already a parish church around 1500 . After destruction in the Thirty Years' War , the patron saint Peter Werdermann, at that time owner of the Proschwitz manor , supported the reconstruction. Bohnitzsch, Niederfähre, Ockrilla , Proschwitz , Rottewitz and Winkwitz were or are included in the parish . In the pre-Reformation period, the building was dedicated to St. George. According to a legend, Benno von Meißen is said to have determined a perimeter during the consecration of bells that is protected from lightning.
In the area below the church and cemetery, a built-up rampart is assumed, while a larger settlement was located to the northwest of the church during the early Iron Age. Already in 1226 there was a curia (knight's seat) in Zscheila, in 1406 a Vorwerk and in 1696 a manor is attested. In the early 18th century, Zscheila was owned by the family of the Electoral Saxon chief accountant Dr. Jacob Friedrich Schilling .
For centuries, the administration of the place was the responsibility of the Prokuraturamt in Meissen, so it was an official village . In 1856 Zscheila belonged to the Meißen court office and then came to the Meißen district administration , from which the district of the same name emerged. For 1791 and 1834 it is guaranteed that Zscheila formed a community together with the neighboring Niederfähre. On the basis of the rural community code of 1838 , Zscheila then gained its independence as a rural community . Zscheila was incorporated into Meißen together with the neighboring village of Bohnitzsch in 1914 and has since been part of the district town.
