A serious explosion occurred here in 1935 with over 100 fatalities, as many seriously injured people and major property damage at the plant and in the surrounding villages.

Dobien

Dobien was first mentioned in 1182 as Burgward with a knight of Dobien on Wallberg. Around 1200 the complex became uninhabitable due to an attack by armed Wittenbergers. The church, which was destroyed in the Thirty Years' War, was rebuilt in 1683, but destroyed again in the War of Liberation in 1813 . Reconstruction began in 1820.

There were mills in Dobien too. The grinding mill, built in 1672, was in operation until 1954, another mill was located above the village and was used as a cloth-making shop and later for paper production since 1814.

Braunsdorf

Braunsdorf was first mentioned in 1377 as Brunsdorp. The old village complex is laid out as a circular structure around a small hill with a church in the center. The village and church were looted and destroyed in the Thirty Years War.
