The major turning point during World War II that led to Germany's eventual surrender was the Battle of Stalingrad, which took place from August 1942 to February 1943. German forces suffered a devastating defeat as they were encircled and cut off by Soviet troops, marking a significant shift in the war's momentum. This defeat not only depleted German resources but also boosted Allied morale and marked the beginning of a series of Soviet offensives that would push German forces back toward their own borders. Ultimately, Stalingrad symbolized the decline of German military power and set the stage for their eventual surrender in 1945.
