From Helga Pollak's diary
As part of the commemoration of the victims of National Socialism, our group of "Girls from Room 28" were guests of the German Bundestag in January 2008 and the exhibition The Girls from Room 28, dedicated to the children of Theresienstadt, was opened together with them. For our introduction to the exhibition, the Leipzig Gewandhaus Children's Choir sang the anthem from Room 28. The pianist Jascha Nemtsov played works by Theresienstadt composers. The Bundestag added the replica of Room 28 to the exhibition and handed this element over to the Room 28 eV association
