Rosa in Dahlem
Gerhard's father had died in 1928. Rosa had remained at the apartment with Gerhard but when Gerhard and Ilse married in 1933, it is thought that Rosa then moved to Dahlem.
Dahlem was and remains today a very desirable part of Berlin, the location of Berlin's Botanical Gardens, painted by Minna, and with many large and imposing houses. Rosa's detached property, with its pretty garden, also painted by Minna, was situated near the park in a tree-line road in walking distance of Steglitz and the Schlossstrasse.
