The prisoners' belongings were sorted by the SS, recycled and sold - partly to pay for the Holocaust itself. 'Belongings' meant absolutely everything! Even women's hair was sold for stuffing upholstered furniture in Germany. This was well known among the Germans, who thought (probably mistakenly) that their wartime soap was made from Jewish fat. (Sorry this sounds so awful, but there's no point in hiding what happened).
