The Panzer Division Feldherrnhalle 2 was formed in March 1945 from the Replacement and Training Brigade Feldherrnhalle, which had been forced out of Danzig early that year.[1] The new division was sent to join the 8th Army, which was located in Slovakia at the time.[1] In April 1945 the division fought its only battles, in Slovakia and on the upper Danube.[1]
