In the very south of the state Saxony-Anhalt in Burgenland district, the winter sportsmen of Rasberg, a suburb of Zeitz, constructed their first ski jumping hill in 1929. At the slope of Oettlerberg in Kundorftal it was set up with a take-off, which was should have been 2 meters high.
In 1950's the ski jumpers of the new sports clubs of Post-, Motor- and Chemie-Zeitz reconstructed the ski jump for a common use and later steel works Rasberg set up a bridge over the creek, in order to increase the safety of ski jumpers in the outrun. Until mid 1960's district championships were organized on Oettler-Berg-Schanze during snowy winters.
Over the years the wooden structure became ramshakle and collapsed in 1965. Already before plans for a new-construction of a 40 meter hill with plastic mattings for summer use were discussed. But an increasing number of warm winters caused the plans to be dropped.
