Walter Pachur, today, is in Allendorf. Don't know whether that helps.

During the war there was a Walter Pachur confectionary store somewhere in Pommerania. I found a passage in a book about wartime life in Pommerania, where a woman says her sister got a job at the Walter Pachur confectionary store.

More specifically, a town called Stolp. Or Stolpmünde? Incidentally, it appears that the Walter Pachur business may have taken over the confectionary store from a Jewish family who got expelled or left on their own.

I'm having trouble finding a 'Munds Hotel'. Or maybe it's Münds Hotel- I can't tell from the photo.

Maybe a leading indicator is that building at the center, that says Joh. Seb. Bach.
That has to narrow it down considerably- a famous musician. Is this building something relevant to Bach history?

Ed.- Oh, now I see that stonemint already identified it as Stolp (now in Poland), so that confirms that the Walter Pachur building is the confectionary store where the girl got a job during the war.
