Stalag IV-G was a German World War II prisoner-of-war camp (Stammlager) for NCOs and enlisted men. It was not a camp in the usual sense, but a series of Arbeitslager ("Work Camps") scattered throughout the state of Saxony, administered from a central office on Lutherstraße[1] in Oschatz, a small town situated between Leipzig and Dresden.
