We prove that for any group G in a fairly large class of generalized wreath product groups, the associated von Neumann algebra L(G) completely "remembers" the group G. More precisely, if L(G) is isomorphic to the von Neumann algebra L(\Lambda) of an arbitrary countable group \Lambda, then \Lambda must be isomorphic to G. This represents the first superrigidity result pertaining to group von Neumann algebras.
