Holocaust memorial centre announced as UK marks Auschwitz anniversary
Prince Charles said the Holocaust must always be remembered and all its victims honoured as it was "an act of evil unique in history".
"Details of the Nazis' diabolical enterprise can help future generations, wherever they may be, understand not just what happened across Europe, but how this came to happen."
Among the invited audience were Holocaust survivors and their families, Labour leader Ed Miliband, Liberal Democrat leader and Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg and Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis.
Mr Miliband, whose grandfather died in one of the Nazi death camps, said: "It's an emotional day for people who have memories and families involved in this.
"When there's prejudice around the world and we see a rise in anti-Semitism, it's incredibly important that we keep that memory alive."
There were speeches, readings and musical performances from contributo
