What happened after her death to the concentration camp that Anne Frank died in?

The Bergen-Belsen concentration camp was liberated by the British 11th Armoured Division in April, 1945, by which time Anne and her sister Margot had been dead for at least 6 to 8 weeks, presumably dying from typhus, which was epidemic. There were around 60,000 prisoners and as many 13,000 unburied corpses - most of these were buried, along with 14,000 who died even after liberation. Conditions at the camp were photographed extensively, and then it was burned to the ground in June.
