32 FDR Music Room at Franklin D. Roosevelt Library and Museum in Hyde Park, New York

This music room, also called the Dresden Room, is part of the Springwood estate located in Hyde Park, New York. On the piano are signed photos of royalty and dignitaries who were entertained by Franklin D. Roosevelt while he was the 32nd president. The pieces of Chinese porcelain were collected by his mother, Sara, during her father’s business trades with China. An adjoining room is very historical. In September, 1944, FDR and Winston Churchill solidified their countries’ cooperation for developing Tube Alloys. This was the code name for the atomic bomb. The two unprecedented blasts over Japan ended World War II about four months after Roosevelt died.
