Description

This is the entrance to an escape tunnel through the floor of the French adjutant's room at Zwickau. Tunneling was a popular means of escape for POW's who had expertise in mining and excavation. Large numbers of war prisoners could escape if the tunnel extended beyond the security zone of a prison camp.
