Prinz-Franz-Kaserne, Military barracks in Kempten, Germany
The Prinz-Franz-Kaserne complex includes three large troop quarters and a central administrative building constructed on a 5.4-hectare site near St. Lorenz Basilica.
The Wehrmacht established this military facility in 1936, with the First Battalion of Infantry Regiment 91 moving in as the initial unit during Germany's military expansion.
The memorial north of Hirschdorf Bridge commemorates 15 soldiers who perished during a training exercise crossing the Iller River in June 1957.
Following its military decommissioning in 1992, the buildings now house public service departments, including the Kempten Building Authority and Water Management Office.
The facility transformation received 8.2 million euros from Bavaria, converting former military spaces into offices that currently employ 400 civilian workers.
