Over the past decades, various people in Moosburg have dedicated themselves to collecting documents and information about the Stalag and its history. As a result, a very large collection of eyewitness accounts, photographs, documents and works of art exists.

Particularly noteworthy is the extensive digital image archive of the local historian Karl A. Bauer, the digital collection of eyewitness testimonies and documents by the historians Werner Schwarz and Martin Pschorr and in the city archive by Wilhelm Ellböck as well as a large number of artifacts in the local museum by Bernhard Kerscher.

On the occasion of anniversaries, individual brochures on Stalag VII A had already been published in the past, but they did not represent a comprehensive historical account. For this reason, the association Stalag Moosburg e.V. has taken on this reappraisal, and was able to publish a series of scientific publications, especially through the extensive archival research of the historian Dr. Dominik Reither.

On the following web pages you will find a collection of sources. >>>>> >>>>>

Quote from Büro für Zeitgeschichte & Denkmalpflege SCHULZ+DRIESCHNER GbR (July 2019):

"... Thus, Stalag VII A Moosburg is above average well documented on the basis of archival sources. In addition, there is an extraordinarily dense supply of other source material on this camp, especially pictorial and representational sources.

In terms of these source categories, Moosburg probably has by far the most significant national collection of material on a former Wehrmacht prisoner-of-war camp. The photographic holdings in the Moosburg Municipal Archives show an astonishing wealth of photographs from all periods of the POW camp's existence, reflecting different nationalities and ethnicities, the most diverse facets of everyday life in the camp, and the physical and spiritual survival strategies of the prisoners in an often life-threatening situation of scarcity. ..."
