Biography
François Englert was born in a Belgian Jewish family. During the German occupation of Belgium in World War II, he had to conceal his Jewish identity and live in orphanages and children's homes in the towns of Dinant, Lustin, Stoumont and, finally, Annevoie-Rouillon, until liberation.
He grew up to become a theoretical physicist and 2013 Nobel prize laureate in Physics.
