Oflag X-C was a German World War II prisoner-of-war camp for officers (Offizierlager) in Lübeck in northern Germany.
It housed French, British, Polish and other Allied officers.
The camp was opened in June 1940 for French officers captured during the Battle of France.
In June 1941 British and Commonwealth officers from the Battle of Crete[1] and the North African Campaign arrived.
During 1941 and 1942 many Allied air crews that had been shot down were taken to Lübeck, then later transferred to Oflag VI-B, Warburg[2] In mid-1942 many Polish officers were relocated to the Oflag II-D camp.
