well it depends on which camp your talking about..
most were liberated in 1944-1945 by the allies (group of countries against Germany led by united states, Great Britain and Soviet Union).
Some of the extermination camps - Treblinka, Sobibor and Belzec were destroyed by the Nazis in 1943. In those cases there was nobody left to liberate.

∙ 12y agoThere were many camps near and around Germany, whenever Russia, America, or Britain came across one they would liberate it. The Russians would kill all Germans, (I don't blame then) and the British and Americans would arrest as many as they could. This happened between 1940's to 1945.

Well, you could get release via death. But afterwards, the prisoners were liberated, and, for those who survived long enough to get treatment, a LOT of food was issued to them to try to save their lives.
