In 1939, after the aggression of Nazi Germany on Poland, thousands of Polish soldiers were taken prisoner. Prisoners were first sent to the so-called transit camps. dulags (German: Durchgangslager). After initial registration, they were sent to permanent camps (so-called stalags, short for German: Stammlager), which in many cases were established next to the temporary ones. The camp in Konin Żagański (German: Kunau) existed already at the end of September 1939 and operated until the spring of 1940. From Dulag Kunau, soldiers were gradually transferred to the Stalag VIIIC camp in Żagań (German: Sagan).

Individual stalags were marked with a Roman number corresponding to the military district in which the camp was located (in the case of Żagań, it was the 8th Military District of the Wehrmacht) and the next letter of the Arabic alphabet (for example: Stalag VIII A Görlitz, Stalag VIII B Lamsdorf/Łambinowice, Stalag VIII C Sagan etc.). About 8,000 prisoners were transferred from Dulag Kunau to Żagań and immediately set to work building barracks. Work at the Sagan camp began in October 1939.
