Oschatzer Straße 15, Dresden, Heritage monument in Pieschen, Dresden, Germany.

The residential and commercial building at Oschatzer Straße 15 has several floors with shops on the ground level and apartments above. The structure shows the classical layout of a late 19th-century Dresden tenement house.

Benjamin Fanger built the house in 1898 for his family and ran the Kaufhaus Fanger there, initially selling fancy goods, leather goods and kitchen utensils before expanding to a full-range department store. After his death in 1930 his widow Frieda continued the business. In 1933 the premises were rented to Max Brecher and Max Rosenbaum, who opened the Kaufhaus Hava; on 1 April 1933 an SA man with a rifle stood in front of the shop during the Nazi boycott of Jewish businesses. The store was "aryanised" in 1938 and the family expropriated in 1941; Frieda, her daughter Selma and son-in-law Moritz Auerbach died in Theresienstadt and Auschwitz.

The building's name history is visible in its use: Benjamin Fanger's family ran the Kaufhaus Fanger here, and from 1933 Max Brecher and Max Rosenbaum operated the Kaufhaus Hava, "House of Many Articles." Since 2015 the ground floor has housed the Turkish supermarket Istanbul Market, reopened in 2021 under a new operator with the old name.

The building is located in the Pieschen district and is easy to spot from the street. On the ground floor you will find the Istanbul Market, a Turkish supermarket serving the local community.

The facade's heavy neo-baroque ornament is probably made of zinc sheet, a material rarely noticed from street level. A Denkzeichen placed in 2012 by the Gesellschaft für Christlich-Jüdische Zusammenarbeit commemorates the house's residents; in January 2025 the plaque was damaged, presumably by antisemitic perpetrators.
