For generations of Soldiers, families, and civilian employees, Kitzingen was an important part of the U.S. Army presence in Germany. The city was home to a large military community with barracks, housing areas, training facilities, storage areas and support installations. These photographs look back at the former Army sites around Kitzingen and preserve the places that once shaped everyday military life.
For more than six decades, Kitzingen was connected to the U.S. Army presence in Europe. Harvey Barracks and Larson Barracks formed the main military installations, supported by areas such as Marshall Heights, training grounds, ammunition storage facilities and other operational sites. Thousands of Soldiers, family members and civilian employees were once part of this American community.
The U.S. Army presence in Kitzingen ended in 2006, marking the closure of one of the longest-standing American military communities in the region. Since then, many former military areas have been transformed, reused or returned to nature. This photographic archive documents the former barracks, facilities and landscapes and preserves a visual record of Kitzingen's American military history.
