The town of Lauter lies in the district of Erzgebirgskreis in the Free State of Saxony, Germany, between the two towns of Aue and Schwarzenberg. It lies in the Ore Mountains, 4 km southeast of Aue, and 4 km northwest of Schwarzenberg, has 4,927 inhabitants (as of 31 December 2006) in an area of 21.55 km² and belongs to the Town League of Silberberg (''Städtebund Silberberg''). Since 1 January 2013, it is part of the town Lauter-Bernsbach. Through the town runs the Silver Road, the B 101. Lauter has a station on the Zwickau–Schwarzenberg railway and is served by Regionalbahn trains, operated by ''Erzgebirgsbahn'' (a subsidiary of Deutsche Bahn) between Zwickau and Johanngeorgenstadt. == History == The town arose from a forest village (''Waldhufendorf'') established in the late 12th century on the western ridge of the Schwarzwasser Valley. The name is recorded over the centuries as ''Lawther'' (1460), ''Lawte'' (1501) and ''Lauttera'' (1590). The town draws this name from a brook called ''die Lauter'', although this name is now no longer used for any waterway. Besides agriculture and log driving, mining and basket making afforded the population livelihoods. When industrialization began in the 19th century, many machine factories, and metal- and woodworking businesses as well as an enamel factory set up shop in town. Town rights were conferred in 1962. In the early 1950s, the BSG Empor Lauter football club played successfully in the DDR-Oberliga, until it was delegated to Rostock in 1954. Its successor club Hansa Rostock played in the First Fußball-Bundesliga. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lauter, Saxony」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
