By 1942, the Germans had built 6 death camps. Some of theses death camps were Auschwitz, Belzec, Chelmno, Majdanek, Sobibor, and T.II. Some other Concentration camps were Bergen-Belsen, Buchenwald, Dachau, Sachsenhausen, Treblinka, and Theresienstadt. These camps were forced work camps and not killing camps. The worst death camp out of them all was Auschwitz.

He was sent to 5 different concentration camps but i can only find 3 due to low information of Benjamin Jacobs. He was sent to Buchenwald concentration camp, dora-mittelbau concetration camp, Auschwitz concentration camp.
Most were in the area formerly known as the 'Pale of Settlement', the largest concentration was in what the Nazis called 'General Government'.
Ghettos were a small section of a city where Jews were herded into and kept until they were sent to concentration camps.
Elie Wiesel's father was not wealthy. He was a grocery store owner in Sighet, a small town in Romania. The Wiesel family lived a modest life before being sent to concentration camps during the Holocaust.
During the Holocaust, Jews were sent into the concetration camps as prisoners and/or slaves. Other than that, before the Holocaust, Nazis sent enemies to the concetration camps. The extermination camps came into most use during the Holocaust. Before that, it was used for expeirimenting and enemies.
They were sent to ghettos prior to the Concentration Camps...
They were sent to Auschwitz along with Elie and the rest of the Wiesel family
Relocation camps were camps where people were kept. Mostly Jews were kept there, but there were other people. They were sent there because Germany and the Nazis hated them!
They were sent to Auschwitz. Later, Elie and his father were moved to Buchenwald.
concentration camps or death camps Edit: Like the above said, they were sent to concentration camps. Although, if they were healthy the Jew was then send to work camps, but before this they lived in the ghettos. (or they had to go hide.)
Jews were sent mainly to extermination camps rather than concentration camps. Please see the related question(s).
