French Basketweavers at Landau
- Notes:
- Prison camps required the services of skilled craftsmen to help the facility operate properly. Four French prisoners work outside of their shop in Landau-Ebenberg weaving baskets. Often POW's apprenticed with experienced craftsmen in prison and learned a new trade which they could practice after their repatriation.
