Well... generally speaking I'm not aware of any constration camps in Europe... however - concentration camps - well there was bound to be at least one (i am making an assumption... deal) Most of the concentration camps were in Poland, Austria and Czechoslovakia.
Websites - i suggest you get a book. the web is nasty for research.

There were no camps in Denmark. As a matter of fact the Danish underground was able to smuggle more than 2000 jews to Sweden. Most of the Jews that were taken to camps in eastern Europe survived due to the efforts of the Danish King and others in their government.

There were no concentration camps in Denmark. If any Danes (Jewish or otherwise) were "sentenced" to go to a concentration camp, they were sent to Germany, Poland and mainly Czechoslovakia - to the concentration camp Theresienstadt.
Here are a few websites about the Jews' situation in Denmark during the war:

http://www.auschwitz.dk/Denmark.htm
http://www.ushmm.org/outreach/denmark.htm
And here are a couple of links more specifically about concentration camps:
http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/Holocaust/cc.html
http://history1900s.about.com/library/holocaust/blmap.htm
I don't know the reliability of all these sources, so just remember to be critical of your sources as always :-)
Good luck with your report.

The Danes managed an incredible feat- they pretended to collaborate with the nazis and, some 2 days before the danish jews were supposed to be arrested- gathered almost all their Jews and managed to ship them to Sweden- right under the noses of the Nazis.

Concentration camps?
The only site that I've found that I think is very credible is www.remember.org
There are many links there, virtual tours of some of the camps, pictures, articles, etc. It may get you started, but I agree with the poster before me that you need to get some books, too. There is a nice book reference on this site, too.

Please, before you write a report, learn English if that's the language you are trying to use, it is made easy for the illiterate, it is called "spellcheck", where would USA be without it?????.
Denmark was occupied, and fairly harshly treated, but there were NO CONCENTRATION CAMPS THERE.
