At the beginning of the school year 2003/2004, historian Fredo Behrens convinced other Delmenhorst schools to present former Jewish students with other artistic means and to exhibit these works together in the town hall on November 9.
We suggested that the Delmenhorst city council commemorate the 11 students at a central location - preferably in the city hall, from where the ordinance to seize the "Jewish" students was issued, which in the worst case was the first step on their way to Auschwitz.
