Description
Photograph of the interior of a barrack, probably housing French prisoners, in the prison camp at Minden. As demonstrated by the property hanging on the walls of the dormitory, POW's brought few possessions with them into captivity. Conditions were cramped, although POWs enjoyed individual beds at Minden instead of double- or triple-decked bunks constructed in other camps.
