Fritz Rosenbaum, born on September 4, 1893 in Soest was a nephew of Sabine Rosenbaum, who was co-owner of the Rosenbaum department store at Brüderstraße 30. Due to the denunciation of an employee on the occasion of a derogatory remark about a swastika flag and a bawling SA troop, Sabine Rosenbaum was driven through the streets of Soest in mid-March 1934 with a sign hung around her, "I am an old Jewish woman and have insulted Adolf Hitler's flag." Sabine Rosenbaum died on February 25, 1942 in the St. Ida Hospital in Hovestadt.
