The recreation hall is another barracks building. There are two rec halls at Stalag 13, one for the German guards and one for the prisoners. The one for the prisoners contains mainly sporting equipment that the prisoners would use to help keep up their morale. Most of the equipment would be related to baseball, but because of the camp's make-up of being prisoners from several Western Allied nations, it should also contain equipment for playing rugby, cricket and soccer. The recreation hall would also be used for non-sporting reasons such as playing games like chess and checkers, listening to records, or putting on plays.
