geography

location

The hat house of the "Beschert Glück Fundgrube" built in 1786 is one of the most representative and best preserved hat houses in the mining region around Zug

Zug stretches from the valley of the upper Münzbach in the east to the road that connects Freiberg and Brand-Erbisdorf , today's federal road 101 , and the easternmost hunts of the hospital forest and Freiberg city forest in the west with the natural monument Tümpel on the last Dreier . In the north, Zug is bounded by the Freiberg city limits, which existed until 1994, with the districts of Wasserberg and Seilerberg . In the south, the Brand-Erbisdorfer city limits form the end. Closed settlement areas are at the so-called Stollnhaus (from " Bergwerkstollen " , which is traditionally always written "Stolln" in Saxon culture ), east of the Münzbach and more recently at the so-called Rosine , Am Krönerstolln and Am Obergöpelschacht .

Zug is a typical scattered settlement that was formed from the districts of Niederzug , Mittelzug and Oberzug . Old historical names of the area are Oberloßnitz , Rotes Vorwerk , Forwergk aufm Wasserbergk and Auf dem Zug . Together with the district of Langenrinne, which was incorporated in 1950, the town today forms the Freiberg district of Zug, which consists of the following five districts:

  • Rotes Vorwerk : in the west on the B 101 and the city limits to Brand-Erbisdorf
  • Oberzug : southern center, with the "Am Obergöpelschacht" settlement
  • Niederzug : northern center, with the State Office for Agriculture
  • Langenrinne : in the east on Münzbach and "Berthelsdorfer Straße" and the Rosine settlement on "Frauensteiner Straße"
  • Pulvermühle : in the far east on the Freiberg Mulde

history

Former border pillar of the city of Freiberg to the Freiberg district office from 1791 on the main road between Zug and Brand-Erbisdorf, demolished and stolen in 2014

In the area south of Freiberg mining was already practiced in the 12th century, with a heyday in the 16th century - as in the entire Freiberg mining area . The village of Zug was first mentioned in a document in 1578. In 1786 the train was written and in 1806 on the low train . The name Zug comes from the miner's language. It was used to designate a number of tunnels, stores or seams lying next to one another, and also a number of mines built on the same deposit. The mining landscape of Zug was crossed by four mighty heaps of heaps. These were the Rosenkranz, Turmhofer, Hohbirker and Krönert trains, on which silver and lead ore in particular was mined.

The nucleus of the place was formed by a wide variety of buildings that served mining, such as pit buildings, hut houses and horse pegs and the corridors and buildings of the randomly laid out miners' settlement of Brand, adjacent to the former Freiberg district village of Berthelsdorf . Furthermore, the Rote Vorwerk or Rotvorwerk , the Hilliger Vorwerk and the Mauckischer Vorwerk, mentioned in 1445, are considered to be the germ cells .

The battle of Freiberg , the last battle of the Seven Years' War (1756 to 1763), took place in the corridors of Zug . The world's first cavern power plant was set up on the Drei-Brüder-Schacht and the Constantin -Schacht and was in operation until 1972. The Rothschönberger Stolln runs under these shafts .

In 1839 the municipality of Zug was formed from Nieder-, Mittel- and Oberzug. Until 1856, Zug was part of the Freiberg district office of the Electoral Saxony or Royal Saxon district . From 1856 the place belonged to the Freiberg judicial office and from 1875 to the Freiberg district administration . In 1913 mining stopped.

On July 1, 1950, the previously independent community of Langenrinne was incorporated into Zug, which became part of Freiberg in the Chemnitz district (renamed Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ) as a result of the second district reform in the GDR in 1952 . This was continued as the Saxon district of Freiberg from 1990 and merged into the district of central Saxony in 2008. With the incorporation on February 1, 1994, the municipality of Zug became a district of the city of Freiberg.

traffic

Train stop (2016)

Bundesstrasse 101 ( Silberstrasse ) runs west of Zug . Since 1901, the place with the train stop located on the southern outskirts had a train station on the Berthelsdorf – Großhartmannsdorf line . Passenger trains ran here until May 23, 1998 . The route is now only in operation between Berthelsdorf (Erzgeb) and Brand-Erbisdorf , but is rarely used.

Others

With its hut houses , Erzwäschen , Scheidebänken , mountain blacksmiths , artificial trenches , Röschen and with the mining dumps and Bingen, Zug forms an extensive technical and cultural monument and was formerly an important part of the Freiberg mining district .
