In Victory, Magnanimity, in Peace, Goodwill A History of Wilton Park

Wilton Park is not a stately home. It was once. In World War II it became a secret camp for interrogating enemy generals. But it took on its true, unique role in 1946 as a training centre for German prisoners-of-war. Later, it carried out the civic education of civilians due to help run post-war Germany. Before long, it opened its doors to high-flyers from other European countries, the United States and the rest of the world. It still flourishes as a forum in which policy makers and opinion formers from politics, government, business and the professions discuss in private the best ways of solving international problems and increasing understanding.
