The camp closest to the Franks in Holland is the Westerbork transit camp. Located in the province of Drenthe, Westerbork was used during World War II to detain Jews before they were deported to extermination camps. The Franks were taken to Westerbork before ultimately being sent to Auschwitz.
Westerbork concentration camp was in operation from October 1942 to April 1945, making it around two and a half years. It was initially set up by the Dutch government as a transit camp for Jews before they were deported to extermination camps in Eastern Europe during the Holocaust.
The Wikipedia list of concentration camps gives the figure as "300?". Technically, it was supposed to be a transit camp and interrogation centre.
Maybe 100. Only the ones that where not obeying the rules. Westerbork was a transit camp. Not a concentration camp.
The distance between Westerbork transit camp and Auschwitz concentration camp is 1,099 Kilometers or 683 Miles.
