With the Nazi occupation of Denmark in April 1940, Britain feared Germany would gain access to Denmark’s dependency, Iceland, which is strategically located in the North Atlantic. Had Germany seized control of the island, Allied convoys would have been in greater danger of attack by German U-boats. Join Assistant Director of Education, Kyndall Lally, as she explores the complexities of the invasion and its impact on Iceland’s economy and population.
