Escape Tunnel Exit at Zwickau

The exit of the escape tunnel dug by French prisoners outside the prison wall at Zwickau. They selected a spot to emerge which was far from the German sentries and difficult to see from the guard tower. Dressed in civilian clothing, they made their way to a neutral country.
