Fritz Pfeffer's home in Berlin

Fritz Pfeffer lived in Berlin from 1912 until he fled to the Netherlands in late 1938.

To this day, the Passauerstraße still has a special character due to the adjacent Kaufhaus des Westens (Department Store of the West: KaDeWe) and as a center of Jewish religion and culture. In the period before the Second World War it was also a center of modern literature and Russian life in exile.[1] Administratively, the street then belonged to three districts, namely Schöneberg, Charlottenburg and Wilmersdorf.

A Stolperstein (stumbling stone) in front of Lietzenburger Straße 20b, then Passauerstraße 33, commemorates Fritz Pfeffer's stay at this address.[2]
