Prisoner of war camp in Skeiddalen was one of several camps that were established in Norway during the Second World War. The camp was established by the German authorities to house prisoners of war, mainly from the Soviet Union. It is located in Skeiddalen, near Bodø, and was used from 1941 to 1945. The camp was part of the German military system that handled prisoners of war in the occupied territories.

The area around the camp today has historical significance and is a place for reflection on the consequences of the war. There are remains of buildings and infrastructure that bear witness to the camp's former activities. Skeiddalen is also an area of natural beauty, which provides a contrast to the historical use of the place. The camp is an example of the many prisoner of war camps that were established in Norway during the German occupation.
