In the building that stood on this site, the Frauengewerbeschule des Dr. Krüger-Heims für Lehrmädchen (formerly Elisabeth-Lehrmädchenheim) and the Jewish-Orthodox girls' school "Bet Jakob" were originally housed. During the Nazi dictatorship it served as a collection camp, from which tens of thousands of Jews - men, women and children - were transported to the death camps of the Reich. May their memory be blessed. /
