Between 1939 and 1945, Nazi doctors and nurses killed more than 5,000 children, according to the exhibit.

Right-wing nationalists and residents of the village of Csokako, located 80km (50 miles) southwest of Budapest, attend a ceremonial unveiling of a statue dedicated to Miklos Horthy, a controversial former regent of Hungary, June 16, 2012. Horthy allied with Nazi Germany in World War Two in exchange for the restoration of some territories that Hungary lost in the Trianon peace treaty at the end of World War One. Horthy was still the head of state, which was already under Nazi occupation, where about 437,000 Jews were deported from Hungary to death camps within a couple of months in 1944. He resigned later that year. REUTERS/Laszlo Balogh (HUNGARY - Tags: SOCIETY POLITICS)

Opposition activist and one of the leaders of the bloc People's Freedom Party Boris Nemtsov speaks at a protest camp demonstrating against Russia's President Vladimir Putin's presidency, in a boulevard in central Moscow May 11, 2012. Putin, two days after being sworn in for a six-year term, promised to project Russia's might on the world stage in a rallying speech on Wednesday to troops and war veterans celebrating victory over Nazi Germany at a military parade bristling with weapons on Red Square. Russian courts later jailed two prominent opposition leaders for 15 days for their role in the protests against Putin's return to the Kremlin, sending a new signal that Putin is determined to keep a lid on dissent in his third presidential term.
