Former Jewish children's centre at no. 58/58a Wohlersallee.

The Altona High German Jewish community (Hochdeutsch Israelitische-Gemeinde Altona) owned the building at no. 58/58a Wohlersallee. Situated on the border between Altona and Hamburg it was established as a children's centre for Jewish children from Altona and Hamburg. In 1929 ambitious alterations were carried out to make the building better suited to its purpose. The cellar was converted into wash-rooms and bathrooms with shower facilities. The ground-floor and first floor accommodated the play and work rooms of the kindergarten and day home for schoolchildren in the afternoon. The doctor's consulation room for babycare and youth welfare was also on the first floor. There was a yard where, in good weather, the children could play. In 1936, due to a decrease in demand, the day nursery was amalgamated and moved in with the day nursery at no. 5 Grünestraße/no. 10 Gademannstraße. In 1942 the ownership of the building was transferred to the Reichsvereinigung der Juden in Deutschland.
