Bergen-Belsen concentration camp
Established in the spring of 1943 and initially intended as a transit camp, it soon was integrated into the concentration camp network. Its population swelled late in the war as inmates from other camps further east were moved into it--from around 15,000 in late 1944 to 41,250 in March 1945.
