2. The cosmetics factory where Paul Celan's parents were supposed to hide
was on Mickiewicz gasse. It was owned by Valentin Alexandrescu.

Lucca Ginsburg wrote in 2003: "When entering the Landhausgasse from the Hauptstrasse and walking along until the end of the street, one reaches the last building, which is the corner house of Landhausgasse and Nikolausgasse.

Paul urged his parents to seek refuge with him, but his mother was resigned: „We can’t escape our fate. After all, there are already lots of Jews in Transnistria.“ What was the name of this cosmetics factory and where exactly was (is) it?
