People in Germany and abroad knew about the ordinary concentration camps. The first extermination camp liberated was Majdanek (in a suburb of Lublin, Poland), which was liberated by the Soviet Army in July, 1944. They invited journalists from Allied countries to visit it and report on what they found. Auschwitz was liberated on 27 January 1945.

One of the very earliest descriptions of conditions in a Nazi concentration was written by Hans Beimler, a Communist who managed to escape from Dachau in May 1933. It first appeared in German in the Soviet Union in August 1933 and was translated into several languages. Please see the link for more detail.
