Yes, there were several trials in the aftermath of World War 2. The first (?) was the Bergen-Belsen Trial in August-November 1945. The Nuremberg Tribunal was also concerned with war crimes and crimes against humanity. One of the most noteworth trials was that in Warsaw in April 1947 of Rudolf Hoess, who was Commandant of Auschwitz from May 1940 till November 1943. Some of the Auschwitz guards, such as Maria Mandel, were tried a little later.

This is not a simple answer: There were many people tried and punished for their involvement, there were many who died before they could be put on trial and there were many who escaped before they could be brought to trial.The Holocaust was initiated by the Nazis, but as it grew, non Nazis also helped and also non Germans.
