  • Caspar Ferdinand Döpper (* 1764 , † November 15, 1821 ) was a cloth cutter by profession and immigrated to Neutitschein, now Nový Jičín (Moravia) , in the 18th century . He first found work with the master cloth cutter Böhm. On June 23, 1814, he bought the building that housed the city's oldest cloth factory (house No. 138 Orient. No. 15, the "house on the green ditch") and founded a cloth factory.
  • The sons Karl Theodor Döpper († December 17, 1864 ) and August Ferdinand Döpper († June 14, 1859 ) took over the factory.
  • Karl Theodor Döpper was originally a partner in Caspar Ferdinand Döpper and Sons. In his pension he was known as a “bourgeois” of the city of Neutitschein.
  • August Ferdinand Döpper was a cloth manufacturer. In his will he bequeathed the cloth factory to his grandson Rainer Hosch , who took over and continued to run the factory after his grandfather's death.
  • Rainer Hosch sold the building to the town of Neutitschein (October 16, 1870), which, after some renovations, set up a secondary school and a kindergarten. In some outbuildings, Rainer Hosch still ran a contract finishing.
  • By resolution of September 4, 1888, the company Rainer Hosch - production of cloth and sheep's wool goods was deleted from the commercial register.

The street in front of the factory was named after Caspar Ferdinand "Döpperring" (today Tyršova ).
