== History == A hill on the right bank of the lower course of the Lungwitzbach is documented as early as 1143 as mons Crostawitze. Its exact location is uncertain, but it is regarded as one of the oldest documentary references for the area. Place-name endings such as -witz are generally taken to indicate early Slavic settlement in the region.
