Vlotho-Exter is just north-east of Herford. The present Finke address in Exter is at the center of the map linked to below here.
How long Finkr has been in the nort-west Germany is not known to me. But apparently there have been Finke's in Bohemia also.
The finke instruments in my gallery are these:
