POW Escapes is a “Reality Tourism” experience. A World War Two prisoner of war camp of the type operated by the German Luftwaffe in World War Two has been recreated near Warsaw in Poland, and our goal is give people the chance to experience what it was like for Prisoners of War in these “Stalag Luft” camps. Everything in and around the camp has been faithfully recreated in consultation with experts and veterans.  

We are fully aware of the terrible hardships and mistreatment suffered by most prisoners of the Nazis. We do not intend to minimize or trivialize their suffering, we simply wish to provide interested people with an experience something similar to what some of the more fortunate airmen experienced during their time as prisoners of the Luftwaffe during World War Two. 

POW Escapes does not support, condone or endorse the actions of the Nazis or any other extremist political or racist organization past or present. 

This site is dedicated to the memory of the millions of people who lost their lives during the World Wars, and in particular to the thousands of brave men from all branches of the Allied armed forces who suffered and died as Prisoners of War during
World War Two.
