        The area natural monument Mühlgraben Sendig-Mühle is the oldest paper mill in Zwönitz, it was first mentioned in 1540.
        In 1545, the Elector of Saxony granted her the privilege of making paper from rags.
        After the Brüderlein papermaking family, the Sendig family owned the mill from 1695 to 1858. In addition to manual paper making, press shavings were also produced from around 1800. The old mill burned down in 1867 and larger and more modern factory buildings were built. Paper production ended in 1877 and the entire property became the property of Oscar Koch in 1886. The ruins with the wheel chamber and the waterfall were demolished in 1980. The reconstruction was carried out by ABM.
