Large crowds have been attending an official exhibition at Liege portraying conditions in Nazi concentration camps. The exhibit includes numerous photographs and documents depicting the horrors of the Nazi torture and murder camps.

The exhibit was arranged in connection with the Adolf Eichmann trial by the Ministry of Public Health in cooperation with the Belgian Association of Former Political Prisoners. The many visitors, who include young people, are shown around by guides selected from death camp survivors. The French film, Night and Fog, which is rated as one of the most devastating portrayals of Nazi sadism and murder, also is being shown at the exhibit.
