History
The village has an ancient Slavic circular form of building residential buildings with an area in the center. It was first mentioned in 1400 under the Serboluzhitsky name Ochoze [2] .
The population of the village increased significantly after World War II during the development of nearby brown coal deposits and the construction of the nearby Boxberg Thermal Power Station and peaked in the 1960s. After the reunification of Germany in 1991, some coal mines in the south of the village were closed, they were restored and the population fell to the level of the beginning of the 19th century.
Until 1994, it was part of the commune of Yamen. Since 1994, it has been part of the modern commune of Boxberg [3] .
Currently, the village is part of the cultural and territorial autonomy of the “ Luzhitsky Settlement Region ”, on the territory of which there are legislative acts of the lands of Saxony and Brandenburg, contributing to the preservation of the Luzhitsky languages and culture of Luzhic [4] [5] .
