Max Wolf, born 8.11.1875 in Gütersloh, deported to Minsk on 8.11.1941

Nagelsweg 33-35 (Victoriastraße 14)

Max Wolf lived in Hamburg-Hammerbrook since at least the 1930s, first in Norderquaistraße and from 1936 in Victoriastraße.
He was arrested for the first time as early as June 1938 - probably in connection with the "Aktion Arbeitsscheu Reich" - and interned in the Sachsenhausen concentration camp, from which he was released after about three months.

At an unknown time, he had to live in the "Judenhaus" at Schlachterstraße 40.
On November 8, 1941, he was deported from this house to the Minsk Ghetto, with a total of 968 Hamburg Jews.
There was no turning back for him.
Since Victoriastraße no longer exists today, the stumbling stone for Max Wolf was laid at Nagelsweg between Albertstraße and the Mittelkanal on the side facing into the city.
