Founded by Wolf Löwenstein in Jebenhausen in 1866, the business was moved to Göppingen in 1867 and continued by his son Heinrich Löwenstein under his name. In 1899, Heinrich Löwenstein's son Julius Löwenstein joined as a partner. After the death of Heinrich Löwenstein in 1916, Julius Löwenstein continued the business as sole proprietor. In 1933, Julius Löwenstein and his wife Ida, née Gunz moved to Sontheim near Heilbronn to the "Jewish Home for the Elderly" there. In 1934, Julius Löwenstein sold his house to his brother-in-law Emil Hilb.

When it came to the dissolution of the company "D. Rosenthal & Co." in 1887, two new corset factories emerged from it in the same year: "Wilhelm Rosenthal & Co." and "Rosenthal, Fleischer & Co.". The first shareholders of the company "Rosenthal, Fleischer & Co." were Samuel, Julius and Leopold Fleischer and Adolph Rosenthal, who lived in London and left the company again as early as 1889.

On the site where Wiesbaden's Old Synagogue was located a memorial to the city's murdered Jews was established on January 27, 2011 

The Old Synagogue Square in Freiburg im Breisgau is a place of remembrance of Jewish life and its temporary extinction. Here stood the synagogue of the Jewish community of Freiburg from 1870 to 1938. Its complete destruction during the November pogrom was followed by the expulsion and murder of all 1,138 Freiburg Jews. After the Second World War, the city of Freiburg remained in possession of the site as a result of a settlement with the newly founded Jewish community.
