Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: PYR-RAY
QUERFURT , a town of Germany, in the province of Prussian Saxony, situated in a fertile country on the Querne, 18 m. W. from Merseburg, on a branch line from Oberroblingen. Pop. (1905) 884, Its
chief
 
industries
  are
sugar
 -refining, lime-burning and brewing. Querfurt was for some time the
capital
  of a principality which had an area of nearly 200 sq. m. and a
population
  of about 20,000. The ruling family having become
extinct
  in 1496, it passed to that of
Mansfeld
 . In 1635, by the peace of Prague, it was ceded to the elector of Saxony, John George I., who handed it over to his son
Augustus
  of Saxe-Weissenfels; but in 1746 it was again united with electoral Saxony. It was incorporated with
Prussia
  in 1815.
See Schneider, Querfurter Stadt- and Kreischronik(Querfurt,1902).
