history

The first written mention as dated from the year 1264 as Zwenvordin . August Schumann mentions Zweenfurth in the State Lexicon of Saxony in 1826, among other things:

“Zweenfurth or Zweenfurt, an insignificant, but wealthy and gifted parish village of the royal family. Saxon district office Leipzig, next to the Grimmaic official limits, belongs to the University of Leipzig, which received it from Duke Moritz in 1543 at the request of D. Börner , and is one of its so-called new village communities. […] The 170-180 residents are practicing economics almost exclusively, and have 21 hooves of medium quality; In 1801 there were 151 consumers. The number of houses is forty. The mill has only 2  gears ; The Wolfshainer Kabelholz begins opposite her. There is a forge in the village. The school is provided by the schoolmaster in Beucha, as the mother church village. "

Zweenfurth and the Wehrbruch deserted area in the corridor were located in the electoral and royal Saxon district offices of Leipzig until 1856 . From 1856 the place belonged to the Brandis court office and from 1875 to the administrative authority of Grimma . On June 1, 1973, Zweenfurth was incorporated into Borsdorf.

The place name is borrowed from the historical crossings of the Parthe and Threne . To the north of the location there is a landscape protection area in the area of ​​the reed, medium and wood meadow . The Parthewanderweg, which leads via Borsdorf , Panitzsch , Taucha and Leipzig-Plaußig to Leipzig-Schönefeld , begins in Zweenfurth.

traffic

The Borsdorf – Coswig railway runs through the village and branches off the Leipzig – Dresden railway at Borsdorf station , but there is no traffic stop. The nearest train stations are Borsdorf (Sachs) train station, one kilometer away, and Beucha train station, three kilometers away . Borsdorf is the traffic stop for the RE50 lines to Dresden and the S4 of the Central German S-Bahn to Wurzen. The RB110 line stops in Borsdorf and Beucha and offers direct connections to Grimma and Döbeln .

Zweenfurth is connected to the 172 bus through LeoBus GmbH , a subsidiary of Leipziger Verkehrsbetriebe . This only runs Monday to Friday, in the morning and afternoon, and is therefore primarily used for school traffic between Leipzig-Engelsdorf and Borsdorf.

Regionalbus Leipzig GmbH connects the town with the 684 bus in the direction of Borsdorf and Beucha / Brandis. This line, too, is primarily geared towards school traffic; their operating time is the same as that of bus route 172. Zweenfurth cannot be reached by public transport during school holidays, Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays.
