Frieda Freudenstein, née Frenkel, was born on May 1, 1864 in Varenholz (NRW).

Frieda's sister Johanne had already moved to Stade and married the businessman David Jacobson.

After her sister's death, Frieda Frenkel took over the upbringing of her four immature children, including Ernst Ludwig Jacobson, who later became known as Ernst Harthern (pseudonym Niels Hoyer) as a writer and cultural mediator between Germany and Scandinavia.

She marries the merchant Louis Freundenstein, who from 1904 is the owner of the company "J. Jacobson Nachfolger" at Bungestraße 14. The small business is no longer very successful during the Weimar Republic. The owner Louis Freudenstein nevertheless enjoyed a high reputation in Stade and was elected to the municipal council in 1919.

After his death in 1924, his widow Frieda Freudenstein continued to run the business for a few more years. In 1933, she moved into an attic apartment in Harsefelder Strasse.

On the night of the November pogrom of 1938, SA men stood outside her house for the first time, but were prevented from entering. From around 1939, the widow was visited by the SA at regular intervals. Already during the first house search, jewelry, silver and other valuables were taken from her. In the end, she was left with only a small amount of cash and barely more clothes than she had on her body.

In 1940, she was forced to relocate to Hamburg and deported from there to Theresienstadt on July 15, 1942. From Theresienstadt, already 78 years old, she was deported to Treblinka and murdered there on September 26, 1942.
