, Germany, Lower Saxony, Sandbostel - Barracks of the Sandbostel camp memorial (former prisoner-of-war camp Stalag X B Sandbostel during the Nazi era). From the end of September 1939 until (liberation), several hundred thousand prisoners from all over the world passed through the camp. Thousands did not survive. POW camps were also a place of crimes against humanity and war crimes for the Nazis. According to racial ideology, Soviet and Polish soldiers often died of starvation, while the British and Americans, for example, were treated more humanely. Responsible for the care of prisoners of war in German custody and the organisation of the camp system was the Prisoner of War Department in the Supreme Command of the Wehrmacht (OKW).
