Stalag VII-A, Prisoner-of-war camp in Moosburg an der Isar, Germany.

The camp covered 35 hectares of land and contained wooden barracks to house prisoners from multiple nations during World War II.

Established in September 1939, Stalag VII-A expanded from an initial capacity of 10,000 to accommodate over 80,000 Allied soldiers by 1945.

French sculptor Antoniucci Volti created four bas-reliefs from local stone while detained, which now form part of a memorial fountain.

Visitors can explore remaining barracks and visit the memorial at the former prisoner cemetery in Oberreit, south of Moosburg.

The camp transformed into Civilian Internment Camp Number 6 after liberation, leading to the development of Moosburg's Neustadt district.
