Jewish cemetery Lisberg
A cemetery was established in Lisberg already in 1739 (or earlier). There are a good 130 gravestones preserved there. The cemetery is enclosed by an almost man-high wall and a dense hedge growing in front of it, and therefore only visible through the locked lattice gate.
.The cemetery can be found by leaving Lisdorf southwards in direction Frenshof and Steinsdorf. The first dirt road after the end of the village on the left leads between fields uphill to the cemetery, which is located on the tree-covered hilltop.
Bung factory Chotzen
In the 1860s, twine manufacturer Wilhelm (Wolf) Chotzen (1829-1913) built a twine factory on the site. His son Otto Chotzen (1864-1950) took it over in the 1890s and converted it into a wooden bung factory. Adjacent to the company premises, the Chotzen family lived in a villa.
Chotzen family residence
The factory owner Otto Chotzen (1864-1950) took over the twisting factory from his father Wilhelm (Wolf) Chotzen in the 1890s and converted it into a wooden bung factory. Adjacent to the company premises Otto Chotzen lived with his wife Elisabeth née Breit (1878-1948) and their three children. The family emigrated during the Nazi era. Otto and Elisabeth Chotzen went to the USA.

From January 1, 1939, the continuation of the business was prohibited. The store was the victim of devastation during the Reich Pogrom Night. Anti-Jewish writings on the shop windows, looted window displays and destroyed interior furnishings, some of which were set on fire, remained.
