Striegistal is a municipality in the district of Mittelsachsen, in Saxony, Germany. In 1994, the unification of the communities of Berbersdorf, Schmalbach, Goßberg, Mobendorf and Pappendorf with Kaltofen as part of the regional administrative reform, created the Community of Striegistal. It received its name from the two rivers that flow through the community, the Little Striegis and the Big Striegis.
