For more than six decades, Würzburg was an important U.S. Army community in Germany.

Leighton Barracks, Emery Barracks, Hindenburg Barracks and Faulenberg Kaserne formed the main military installations in the city, supported by facilities such as the U.S. Army Hospital and other training, supply and storage sites. At its peak, thousands of Soldiers, family members and civilian employees were part of the Würzburg military community.

The U.S. Army presence ended between 1992 and 2008, with Leighton Barracks being the final major installation to close. Today, these former military sites have new civilian uses.

This photographic archive documents the places, buildings and landscapes left behind and preserves a visual record of Würzburg's American military history.
