<p>Op 5 juni 1943 werd bekend gemaakt dat alle kinderen uit het kamp weg moesten. Zij werden de dag erna getransporteerd naar kamp Westerbork. Van daaruit werden de kinderen overgebracht naar kampen in Polen waar ze vrijwel direct na aankomst door middel van vergassing om het leven werden gebracht. Er zijn 1666 kinderen weggevoerd.
</p><p>Herzogenbusch concentration camp (kamp Vught) was a Nazi concentration camp located in Vught near the city of 's-Hertogenbosch, in the Netherlands. Herzogenbusch was the only concentration camp run directly by SS in western Europe outside of Germany. The camp was first used in 1943 and held 31,000 prisoners. 749 prisoners died in the camp. The others were transferred to other camps shortly before the camp was liberated by the Allied Forces in 1944. After the war the camp was used as a prison for Germans. Now there is a visitors center with exhibitions and a national monument remembering the camp and its victims.
