Oflag VII-C was a World War II German prisoner-of-war camp for officers located in Laufen Castle, in Laufen in south-eastern Bavaria from 1940 to 1942. Most of the prisoners were British officers captured during the Battle of France in 1940. To relieve overcrowding, some of the officers were transferred to Oflag VII-C/Z in Tittmoning Castle.The Oflag existed only for a short time. In early 1942 all the officers were transferred to Oflag VII-B in Eichstätt. Eight Channel Island internees died in Laufen camp during the period of internment.
