My hometown Markkleeberg was founded in 1934 by combining the 2 villages of Gautzsch and Oetzsch which have been old human settlements here and the names indicate that those have been settlements of Slavs and Sorbs. I clearly remember that the passport of my daddy gave as place of birth "Gautzsch" and there is still a street here which is called "Alt-Oetzsch" (Old-Oetzsch) and my daddy told me how when they were children they had that saying "Oetzsch, Gautzsch, Rome" which still amuses me to this day.
