About the event
The Nazis thought the Stalag Luft III camp was escape-proof, but 76 Allied airmen proved them wrong. The mass escape of 76 Allied airmen from a Nazi POW camp in March 1944 remains one of history's most famous prison breaks and fifty of the men were found by the Nazis and executed. Come and hear the real version of the events, not the version we 'know' from the film!
