| Σύνοψη: | Ebersdorf was largely untouched by the German Campaign of 1813, but several years earlier - in October 1806 - the citizens of Ebersdorf had already had mostly unpleasant experiences of Napoleon and his soldiers. Coming from Bavaria, Napoleon passed through the Reuß territories with his main army shortly before the Battles of Jena and Auerstedt. The almost incessant procession of French soldiers through Ebersdorf, which lasted ten days, was a dramatic and memorable experience for its inhabitants. Several reports of it are preserved in the Moravian congregation's archives. Napoleon stayed in the castle, while his soldiers had to be fed and housed by the town's inhabitants. In shops, inns and private houses there were countless plunderings and thefts. Only when Countess Luise of Reuß personally appealed to Napoleon on behalf of her territory and its subjects did the town receive a letter of protection, in which the Emperor ordered that in future all troops that came to Ebersdorf should pass straight through. The troops of the French Army were to respect all the Reuß properties, while Ebersdorf itself was given a guard of fifty men. This meant that Ebersdorf was spared the fate of other villages, in which inhabitants died or the whole village was burned down. Nevertheless, the list of the losses suffered by Ebersdorf was long. The choir houses of the single brethren, single sisters and widows, like most of the families, had lost their reserves of food which, with winter coming, could no longer be replaced. |
