In 1926, the Hachshara site was established in Hamelin by the umbrella organization of Zionist youth organizations ‚Hechaluz‘ (Pioneer). The members of the Zionist youth organization were active in the villages around Hamelin on various changing farms. They did not have a central contact point. They met in small groups on alternate Sundays and on the second Sunday for the general pegisha, the formal meeting at which they were prepared for emigration to Palestine. There were problems with restaurants, as the Chawerim (comrades/fellows) did not eat anything and did not drink alcohol.

The Intime Theater was opened in 1910 by Franz Würffel. In September 1921, Anton Herrnfeld took over the venue from the Herrnfeld Theater and began performing his own programs there. At that time, the theater had 300 seats. However, as Anton Herrnfeld was no longer able to build on his earlier successes, he also went on tour with his ensemble. From 1925, the  1925 Concordia-Lichtspiele with the owner Joseph Gutkind were located there. Anton Herrnfeld died in 1929 as a result of a stroke.

The Jewish cemetery in Obrzycko is located opposite the property at 5 Stawna Street and is probably identical to the cemetery in its historical boundaries.

It was established in 1755 after the new Jewish community had received the appropriate permission from the church. During the German occupation in the Second World War, it was completely destroyed and most of the gravestones were used to pave the streets. In the post-war period, there was an unincorporated area without gravestones that was used for dances.
