Seelitz is a municipality in the district of Mittelsachsen, in Saxony, Germany.
Although only one of the colonists is recorded as coming from the small parish of Seelitz, which is near Niederfrohna in the Mulde valley, Bürger may have chosen it out of filial piety and the memory of his own first pastorate, rather than Lunzenau, from which he and most of his people had actually come.
It and the others -- Altenburg, Dresden, Frohna, Johannisberg, Paitzdorf, and Seelitz—were all named by settlers for towns in the Saxony region of their native country.
