Join us at IWM for an afternoon exploring Colditz, the picturesque Renaissance-era Saxony castle that achieved infamy during the Second World War when it became Oflag IV-C, a high security POW camp for housing Allied prisoners with a track record of attempting escape. The subject of numerous books, a television series and a classic war film, Colditz once held captive some of Britain's most well known Second World War veterans, including Pat Reid, David Stirling and Douglas Bader, as well as the Prominente, high ranking members of the British establishment, including Churchill's nephew and Viscount Lascelles, the father of one of our guest speakers. Following the talks, book a ticket for a guided tour around IWM London's Second World War Galleries, add your ticket during the booking the process.
