Bergen-Belsen was a Nazi concentration camp in Lower Saxony in northwestern Germany, southwest of the town of Bergen near Celle. It contained no gas chambers, but some 35,000 prisoners died there, including Anne Frank, between January and mid-April 1945. This camp is where Jews from Germany were sent.

It contained a large range of nationalities in 1944-1945 as large numbers of Jews were moved there from Auschwitz. It was not, in fact, specifically for German Jews, many of whom were shot in the killing-fields of Latvia and Belarus or gassed at Auschwitz.
