Bergen-Belsen started of as a camp were the captured prisoners of war were held. People that were killed here were not like Auschwitz were they were gassed. At Bergen-Belsen they were either shot, hung, starved to death, or killed by disease. This is also the place were Anne Frank and her sister, Margot Frank were killed. She died of typhus a few weeks before the British liberated the camp. This camp was also not as organized and efficient as other camps. Bergen-Belsen would have to sell important prisons, like Jews, to other government in return for money. The camp was liberated on April 15, 1945. Between 36,400 and 37,600 prisoners died in Bergen-Belsen. This camp was interesting but it was still a camp were thousands of Jews were murdered.
