What was Belgium concentration camp like?

Belgium has never had concentration camps during World War II, these were located in Germany and Nazi-occupied territories such as Poland, France and the Netherlands. During World War II, Belgium was occupied by Nazi Germany and it was one of the countries that suffered greatly under the Nazi regime. The Nazis transported a large number of Belgian Jews to concentration camps in the East (especially Auschwitz), and also established a concentration camp at Breendonk near Antwerp, which was used primarily for the detention and interrogation of political prisoners.
