Concentration camps were a fact of Nazi rule in Germany during the 1930s. Mass extermination in the death camps was post the invasion of Russia in summer 1941. I am making a difference between concentration camps as a prison for what were termed undesirables and those places where the Holocaust became a matter of Genocide. This does not mean that the older, original camps were in any way decent or proper, they were not. The difference was that, for the most part, the mass of murders were committed in the death camps in southern Poland between 1942 & 1944.

The answer posted previously was wrong; there were concentration camps during WWI. The Turks had the Armenians in concentration camps such as Deir ez-Zor during WWI. Around 1.5 million Armenians were killed in that genocide total.
In World War 1 (1914-18) there were no concentration camps. For the Nazi concentration camps, see the related question.
By 1944 Nazi had 13 main concentration camps and over 500 satellite camps. The concentration camps were not just to murder people but also for free slave labor.
