The successful company “Składy futer” (Fur Warehouse) had its own branches in Sosnowiec and Katowice. During the II World War back part of building was blown up. The trace of mezuzah was found in the basement, where a house of prayer (shtiebel) used to be. According to historical sources the house of prayer was donated by L. Goldstein and N. Tenenberg.
