From what I recall, U.S./UK/French/etc. forces liberated at least several camps, so those would have been in Germany (not France or Benelux, and not on the Eastern Front). Also, they compelled local Germans to tour the camps, so there would have been German towns nearby.
On such an important topic, it would be great if you could provide citations beyond Wikipedia (arguably the godfather of 'post-truth' information ...).
- lispm 10y agoAgain, extermination camps were not in Germany. Not one. US/french/forces can't have liberated anyone from those extermination camps, since their troops were not there. Only the soviet army reached the extermination camps - those camps who were still there and not closed earlier. Concentration camps were also in Germany. Many. Sure the US/UK/French army liberated people from there. The Wikipedia articles on these topics are actually quite good. Don't spread FUD. https://www.britannica.com/topic/extermination-camp https://www.britannica.com/topic/extermination-camp
