A shopfront still faces Breite Straße 7

This modern photograph shows the Wernigerode building where Jeanette and Fritz Reichenbach kept the family shop. Four Stolpersteine now lie outside the surviving shopfront. The building connects the address to the street today, but its present appearance is not proof of the 1930s interior.
