The Liberation of Bergen-Belsen

This short film, aimed at teenage learners, uncovers the story of the Army’s liberation of Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in the final months of the Second World War. On 15 April 1945, members of the British Army entered the Belsen camp for the first time. Here, they were met with the horrors of the Holocaust. The soldiers encountered 60,000 prisoners, mostly Jews, suffering from disease and starvation. In addition, 13,000 dead lay abandoned. What followed was a large-scale relief operation. This involved attempts to curb the spread of disease, provide urgent sustenance and medical attention, and organise mass burials of the dead. Afterwards, the Nazi perpetrators were brought to justice, while survivors were faced with rebuilding their lives. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Follow the National Army Museum on: Web: https://www.nam.ac.uk/ Facebook:   / nationalarmymuseum   Twitter:   / nam_london   Instagram:   / nam_london
