Ledwards Barracks

Access was only possible on the official open day, as the city of Schweinfurt did not allow any photo ops in advance.

The Panzer Kaserne was renamed Ledward barracks in honor of LTC William J. Ledward.

LTC Ledward was killed in action in Italy, June 1944. He was Commanding Officer of the 27th Armored Field Artillery Battalion.

The U.S. Army took control of Ledward Barracks in 1948.


The former Ledward Barracks in Schweinfurt, Germany, is used for various purposes after being purchased by the city of Schweinfurt in 2015:

The area became Carus Park and it’s a district of the independent city of Schweinfurt in the northwestern part of the city.


The area is identical to the former Ledward Barracks.

The Carus Park is a district under construction for research, science, teaching, student living and leisure.


A large part of the area in the east of the Ledward Barracks was sold to the Free State of Bavaria. The so-called i-Campus of the Technical University (formerly FH) Würzburg-Schweinfurt (THWS) has been under construction here since 2017.
