Inscription.  German:
Das Stadtquadrat F 1 wird hinter dem Rathaus von einem langen schmalen Grundstück durchzogen, das über ein Jahrhundert lang die städtische Metzgerschranne beherbergt. Nur dort dürfen die Metzgermeister nach den Regeln der Zunft das von ihnen geschlachtete Fleisch zum Verkauf anbieten. Nach Lockerung dieser Vorschrift erwirbt Glasermeister Heinrich Rös (1809-1890) im Mai 1847 die 48 Eigentumsanteile der Metzger und baut das Gebäude zur Ladenpassage aus. Dort führt er sein eigenes Verkaufsgeschäft, in dem Glaswaren aller Art, Spiegel und Kristalllüster angeboten werden. Ebenfalls in der Rös-Passage verkauft Buchbinder Friedrich Oberdhan (1818-1871) Karikaturen und Porträts von Friedrich Hecker (1811-1881) und Gustav Struve (1805-1870), die unter dem Besatzungs militär im Herbst des Jahres Unruhen austosen. Glaser Rös vermietet auch dem revolutionären „Volksverein" ein Ladenlokal für dessen Agitationsbüro. Er ist selbst Vereinsmitglied. 1872 übernimmt Philipp Lehmann, der einige Jahre bei Heinrich Rös beschäftigt gewesen ist, das gesamte Anwesen und betreibt in den Rös'schen Geschäftsräumen eine Spiegel- und Bilderrahmenmanufaktur. ©

English Translation:
The city square F 1 is crossed by a long, narrow plot of land behind the town hall, which housed the town's butchers' shop for over a century. According to the rules of the guild, this is the only place where master butchers are allowed to offer the meat they slaughter for sale. After this rule was relaxed, master glazier Heinrich Rös (1809-1890) acquired the butchers' 48 shares in May 1847 and

converted the building into a shopping arcade. There he ran his own shop, selling all kinds of glassware, mirrors and crystal chandeliers. Also in the Rös arcade, bookbinder Friedrich Oberdhan (1818-1871) sold caricatures and portraits of Friedrich Hecker (1811-1881) and Gustav Struve (1805-1870), who caused unrest among the occupying military in the autumn of that year. Glazier Rös also rents a shop to the revolutionary "People's Association" for its agitation office. He is himself a member of the association. In 1872, Philipp Lehmann, who had worked for Heinrich Rös for several years, takes over the entire property and runs a mirror and picture frame factory in Rös's business premises.
