In Januari 1945 it was in Hungary and fought in Raum Tata-Tarjan-Bajna-Sarisap-Coslnok where it was surrounded by enemy forces. They managed to punch a hole in Russian defences and pulled back to Noden. They marched back over to Donau to the area of Pressburg and then to Raum Freistadt where they surrendered to the Americans. Parts of the division were handed over to the Russians.
