Document / objectAdolf’s gravestone looked less weathered in the 1970sThis family photograph shows Adolf Reichenbach’s gravestone during a return to Halberstadt in the 1970s.

The image supports comparison with the stone today, but it does not fix the exact visit date or photographer.

The stone gives 5 Tevet 5661, corresponding to 26 December 1900, while the cemetery register records 27 December. Both dates remain visible because the photograph cannot decide which record is correct.
