Klein Liebitz also had Sorbian-speaking residents until the 19th century, but the use of the Sorbian language declined sharply towards the end of the 19th century. For his statistics on the Sorbian population in Lusatia, Arnošt Muka determined a total population of 110 in the 1880s, of which only 30 were Sorbs and 80 were Germans, which corresponds to a Sorbian-speaking share of 27%.
