The Bosfagne Russian Prisoners' Labor Camp was a labor camp that was established during World War II in the locality of Sourbrodt, eastern Belgium. Germany made a surprise attack on the USSR on June 22, 1941, and quickly invaded its territory. Thousands of Russian prisoners were taken to the rear lines in the heart of German territory. About fifty of them, who had arrived from Düren, were taken to Bosfagne via the Vennbahn in March 1943, near the Elsenborn camp, which already housed some 200 others.
