Der Kaufmannsladen der Familie Wittke wurde im November 1850 vom Kaufmann G.F. Wittke als Material-, Tabak-, Cigarren- und Destillations-Geschäft eröffnet, der von dessen Sohn Johannes (Tod 1928) als Kolonialwarenladen - und schließlich von der Enkeltochter als Lebensmittelgeschäft bis 1974 betrieben wurde. Die Kaufleute verzichteten auf einschneidende Modernisierungen. Somit blieben das Mobiliar der Gründerzeit, aber auch unzählige Warenbehälter, Verpackungen, Flaschen, Büchsen und Werbeträger sowie die nostalgische Verkaufstechnik erhalten. Darüber hinaus gibt es ein Konvolut von Briefen Wittkes.
