German Postcard Deciphering Help

An early 20th-century postcard I found on the internet shows a Silesian village called Quickendorf (today: Lutomierz in Poland) and its four main "attractions". Unfortunately, the resolution is very poor. I'm interested in what the German heading above the small picture in the middle says. The first word might be "Sägewerk", but I'm not sure. Can you help?
Thanks a lot in advance!
PS: A translation into English isn't necessary as I speak German.

Haven't the foggiest, but it looks an awful lot like the building for sale here:

If your Polish is any good it might be worth asking them.

Thanks a lot for your answer and your suggestion.
Yes, you're right, it might be the same building - I'll look into it.

Why not go to the top. Helmut Sauer, Member of the German Parliament was born in Quickendorf and is Vorsitzender der Ost und Mitteldeutschen Vereinigung der CDU/CSU.
