Neucunnersdorf is an unofficial part of the municipality of Kottmar in the southern district of Görlitz , which is popularly known as "The Finke" after the former mill. It is located on State Road 148 between Neugersdorf and Löbau and is usually given as belonging to Niedercunnersdorf . A sand pit is operated south of Neucunnersdorf. To the east, about 250 meters away, the Vorderflössel flows in a northerly direction past the district.

history

The origin of the place can be traced back to the years 1707 and 1708, when the farmer George Wendler sold ten parcels of one rod each to the residents of Niedercunnersdorf. He himself had two more houses built, as well as the nearby Finkemühle in 1715, which in 1801 had the right to free baking, slaughtering and distilling spirits. The focus was on the distillery and, since 1865, the brewery. It was not until 1923 that the former mill was converted into a mechanical weaving mill. In the 1970s she belonged to the VEB Oberlausitzer Stern- und Lampenschirmfabrik Herrnhut. In its Finkemühle part of the business, bird cages of all kinds were mainly produced for export. According to Schumann, the residents of the district are mostly linen weavers (1819), who owned a small amount of land that has been cultivated from Niedercunnersdorf since the cooperative merger in 1960.
