In the present district of Duszniki-Zdrój town - Podgórze, which was called "Kohlau" when the area was German before II World War - there were two hills on the opposite slopes: Freudenbergschanze (K-point approx. 65 m) and Strischekschanze (30 m). Smaller one was built by the local jumper Heinrich (Heinz) Strischek and acquired it's name from his surname.
A historical fun fact is that on the K65 the olympic champion Alf Andersen jumped once. Next 10 years after the war Freudenbergschanze ("Skocznia na Przyjacielskiej Kopie") was still used, but suddenly locals decided to quit a jumping tradition. In the middle of 60's inrun tower was finally demolished.
