Isidor Rothfels, born on 5 Feb. 1896 in Bebra, deported on 8 Nov. 1941 to Minsk

last residential address: Lange Reihe 108

Arriving from his Hessian hometown of Bebra, the merchant Isidor Rothfels had only been in Hamburg since Aug. 1939. He lived as a subtenant at Lange Reihe 108 in the St. Georg quarter, in the apartment of the Jewish merchant Kurt Speyer, who was murdered in Auschwitz in 1943 (see corresponding entry). Isidor Rothfels was among the 968 Jews from Hamburg deported to the Minsk Ghetto in Belarus on 8 Nov. 1941, never to return from there. A Stolperstein is located for him in front of house no. 108 ("1000 Töpfe,” [the site of the first "1000 pots” store after the war]) on Lange Reihe.
