Gutmann, the company name changed to " Gebrüder Gutmann ". In 1899, it became the joint stock company "Mechanische Buntweberei am Stadtbach" with Bernhard J. Gutmann as its chairman.

A Jewish cemetery in Niederzissen was first mentioned in 1763 (Bürger, U.: Chronik Niederzissen p. 517). Here the Jews of the dominions of Olbrück, Kempenich, Bürresheim and Burgbrohl were buried. Beginning in 1820 there was a lengthy legal dispute with the local community over the ownership of the cemetery grounds; in 1852 Isaac Berger was able to acquire the grounds on behalf of the Jewish community. In 1938 the cemetery was desecrated, some gravestones were destroyed. In 1942 the last burial took place.
