International Exhibitions


The exhibition The Girls of Room 28, L 410 Theresienstadt has been created in 2004 in Germany to fulfill the wish of survivors to remember the girls who once lived with them in Room 28 in the Theresienstadt ghetto and were murdered in the Holocaust. They also wished to honour those adults in the ghetto who took care of them and passed on their knowledge, humanity and hope for a better future. The exhibition was created in complementation of the book The Girls of Room 28 which appeared a few months earlier in April 2004. It opened on 23 September 2004 in the frame of the interational Festival "Verfemte Musik" (Forbidden Music) in Schwerin, an ongoing festival under the direction of Volker Ahmels.
