Dobra's Protestant village church is surrounded by the village's former cemetery, where the last burial took place in 1933. The village church is essentially a late Gothic fieldstone building. The date 1483 can be found in the roof truss of the nave. The upper part of the nave was slightly rebuilt in the 17th century. To the west stands a square wooden tower, which becomes octagonal further up, with a spire and weather vane. It dates from the mid-18th century and was restored in 1992.

The area around Dobra was already settled in prehistoric times. A burial ground with burial mounds dating back to approximately 3,000 years ago indicates human settlements in the Bronze Age. The village was first documented in 1422. Dobra probably owes its name to the Sorbian "dobra voda," meaning "good water," and possibly derived from the original stream name. Dobra was once the court seat of the Liebenwerda district. The church square is the focal point of the village. A particularly striking feature is a beautifully carved wooden welcome plaque depicting the village's two former mills.

The stone church built in late Gothic style. A reference to the year of construction is an engraving in the attic with the year 1483. The wooden roof rider dates from the 18th century.
