Feldwebel-Schmid-Kaserne, Military barracks in Rendsburg, Germany

The Feldwebel-Schmid-Kaserne spans 43 hectares and includes multiple buildings that served as training facilities for air defense operations until 2010.

Originally constructed in 1940 as Flak-Kaserne, the facility housed Luftwaffe troops during World War II before British forces took control until 1956.

The barracks received its current name in 2000 to honor Anton Schmid, a Wehrmacht officer who saved 300 Jewish people during World War II.

The former military complex now functions as a business district with solar energy installations and provides space for various commercial enterprises.

Between 2015 and 2018, sections of the former barracks served as temporary housing for 2,000 refugees during the European migration crisis.
