Stalag 4B (4B)
Mühlberg
Mühlberg is a small German town located on the river Elbe approximately 80km northwest of Dresden.
This is the location of one of the largest German prisoner of war camps between 1939-1945. In total, approximately 300,000 prisoners from over 40 nations passed through the camp and more than 3,000 Soviet PoWs died here.
When the Soviet Army liberated the camp in April 1945 there were about 30,000 prisoners crowded into the facilities and, of these, 7250 were British
