    All the property of the old lady Frau G. has been left there, though destroyed by vandals, one can still find interesting things such as books from the first years of the 20th century, personal letters and postcards... or denture adhesive... lots of rusty little tools, a pile of coal and and even pickled food in the basement (some probably still good)

     History
    The old lady who was living there was well known by the neighbours and active in several animal rights-organisations. The house is abandoned since a couple of years, even though she seemed to have many friends in the neighbourhood, nobody seemed to be sure what happened to her and why the house was left to rot. Plans for building a multi-family-residence were anounced and cancelled several times, signs were put there and got removed again, there were some trees cut down unfortunately but they were left there, the site is now labelled as "active contruction site", but nobody seems to look after it. The house has been partly destroyed by some vandal kids, all windows are broken, so now neighbours look out and try keeping it from getting destroyed more.

     Future Plans
    Most plans for demolishing it and building a new multi-family-residence were cancelled again, it's not sure if someone will continue, it seems to be left to rot now
