Best Answer

The first camps were entered by the allies in 1943 and continued to enter and liberate the Jews that could be liberated through 1945. When the Brits entered the Bergen Belsen Concentration Camp in 1945 60,000 prisoners were found alive but of that amount 10,000 died a week later of the Typhus disease (Anne Frank died there from that disease) and starvation. I could not find the very first concentration camp the Britons entered but you can get the specific on from the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. I have given you their web site on the link below.
