Hello! This is the birthplace of Louise Silberberg, who married Samuel Tichauer on December 9, 1885, in Bytom (Beuthen). Could you please transcribe this for me? Thank you! Regards

Looks like "Hubertushülle" (St. Hubert's Mantle? - never seen such a place name but I suppose it's possible)

...Yes -hütte is more plausible!

I tried to locate this place, and apparently it is a common name used for various place, including hunting lodges.

For a Hubertshuette in the area of Bytom, I found a Wikipedia page in Polish, here:
https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hubertush%C3%BCtte

I put the first two paragraphs into Google translate, and this was the result:

Hubertushütte – a German Nazi subcamp of Auschwitz-Birkenau, located in Bytom (Łagiewniki).

History of the Camp

Location
The camp was situated within the grounds of the Zygmunt Ironworks, which had been in operation since 1857 (until 1936, it was known as the Hubertus Ironworks) in Bytom. During World War II, from 1940 to 1942, the facility belonged to the I.G. Betriebsgruppe Bismarckhütte, and subsequently to Berghütte Königs und Bismarckhütte AG[1].
===============================================
If this is the correct Hubertshuette, then in the year that you mention, 1885, it was an ironworks compound.

(Perhaps families of workers lived on the grounds?)
