Remembered Today:

German POW Camps

Recommended Posts

I am researching the names on one of my local War Memorials. One of those remembered was a POW at Osnabruck and Clausthal, does anyone have any information on either of these camps.

Regards

Ian

There's a few interesting anecdotes about both camps (one story involves both) in Robert Jackson's book, "The Prisoners 1914-18". There is also a transcript of a (1917 ,I think) report into conditions inside Clausthal in the Harz mountains. The commandant of this camp doesn't exactly strike me as a very charitable soul!
