We obtain a local classification of conformally flat Lorentzian manifolds with special holonomy groups. The corresponding local metrics are certain extensions of Riemannian spaces of constant sectional curvature to Walker metrics. Bibliography: 28 titles.
Keywords: Lorentzian manifold, special holonomy group, Walker manifold, conformally flat manifold, Nordström's gravity.
