From one of my regular news sources, Morgenavisen Jyllands-Posten online:
kpn.dk - Auschwitz-dokumenter fundet på polsk loft - Kultur
In english:
More than 200 documents regarding the nazi SS, who ran the concentration camp Auschwitz, has been discovered in a polish city near the camp, the polish news agency PAP writes.
Some of the documents are about the physician Victor Capesius, who performed medical experiments on camp prisoners from february 1944.
Capesius was the last medical director of the camp, historian Adam Cyra from the Auschwitz-Birkenau museum informs.
The documents were discovered in an attic in a house due to be renovated, in the city of Oswiecim.
It was right outside this city that the nazis raised the concentration camp Auschwitz, where more than a milllion people - mainly jews - were killed.
Capesius, who were sentenced to 9 years in jail at a german court after WW2, died in 1985.
