In 1939, it was moved to its present site at the end of the Siegesalle or Victory Avenue as part of the Nazi party plan to redesign Berlin. Photographer and publisher Johann Friedrich Stiehm, (1826-1902) got his start in Berlin as a wine and goods dealer before opening his first photographic studio in 1861 with his partner Ed. Fiermann (until 1863). In the early years, Stiehm marketed himself as a landscape photographer, however, by 1881 he can be found listed as a photographic publisher selling views of Berlin, Potsdam and Dresden as well as images of the Nurnberg, Upper Bavaria and Tirol. He made several trips through the 1870s which expanded his international image holdings considerably. He is known to have collaborated with publisher E. Linde and photographer Sophus Williams during the latter 19th century. Upon his death in 1902, his wife Auguste (Wiesener) continued the business until 1905.
