Recordist's notes
Finally we enter the boardroom: "This is the only room that has remained exactly the same as before... here I feel at home!!!" Mrs von Scheven had prepared two short texts which she reads for us in the meeting room. Zuletzt betreten wir den Sitzungsraum: “Also dies ist der einzige Raum, der genauso geblieben ist wie früher… hier fühle ich mich zu Hause!!” Frau von Scheven hatte zwei kurze Texte vorbereitet, die sie uns im Sitzungssaal vorliest.
