Hi Hardy,
here is the photo of the Judenmarkt at the turn of the 20th century:
http://www.lvivcenter.org/image.php?pictureid=3875
The actual name of this square was Alter Markt (before 1907) -
Theodor Herzl Platz (1907-1919) - Targul Vechiu (1919-1944). At some
point (I am not sure when) the market moved one block to the East, to
the Grabengasse - Strada Asachi. The name "Jewish market" was used
well into the 1970ies.
