The first Nazi German camp was Dachau which opened in March 1933 and the Germans vastly expanded them after the start of World War Two. Details of what happen in the Nazi camps was spread to the world e.g. the Polish resistance printed details to spread news to the Jews in ghettos to warn them what the Nazis were doing in the camps and sent details to the Western allies.
The full Horror of the Nazi camps wasn't known until the allies liberated them at the end of the war. Majdanek was first to be liberated by the allies on July 24th, 1944. It is well known as one of the best preserved of the Nazi concentration camps, since the Nazis had little time to destroy the evidence of their crimes before the Soviet Red Army arrived.
