A Quarter Millennium Half — 125 Years of Fire Protection in Kodersdorf
The Volunteer Fire Brigade Kodersdorf is one of the oldest associations in the municipality. Founded in 1901 in response to the increasing risk of fire in the growing industrial town east of Görlitz, the brigade is now part of the Kodersdorf Municipal Fire Brigade, which secures the districts of Kodersdorf, Rengersdorf, and Wiesa. The 125th anniversary on May 30, 2026, is therefore more than just an internal association jubilee – it is a day of celebration for the entire community.
Festival Grounds and Program
For the anniversary, the Straße der Freundschaft between house numbers 1 and 2 – the central axis between the municipal office and the fire station – will be completely closed to car traffic from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. On the festival grounds, the active brigades of the municipality, their youth fire brigade, friendly brigades from the region, and historical fire fighting technology will be presented. For children, there will be a bouncy castle, a mini-firefighting course, and the popular water sprayer. The ceremonial act will be marked by speeches from the municipality, honors for long-serving comrades, and the traditional parade through the town.
Kodersdorf in Upper Lusatia
Kodersdorf is located in the far east of Saxony in the Görlitz district, on the A 4 motorway between Bautzen and the Polish border. The municipality, with its approximately 2,700 inhabitants in the districts of Kodersdorf, Rengersdorf, and Wiesa, is characterized by agriculture and industry – with a large industrial park directly on the highway. The Volunteer Fire Brigade here is not a folklore club, but a pillar of community life.
