Burgholzkaserne, Former military barracks complex in Tübingen, Germany

The Burgholzkaserne is a military barracks complex on the southeastern edge of Tübingen that covers a large area. The site contains multiple buildings and is accessed from Reutlinger Street.

The complex was built in 1935 as a military base and renamed after Hindenburg in 1938. French troops used the site from 1945 until 1991 after the Second World War.

The neighbourhood that grew on the former barracks site has been known as the Französisches Viertel since new residents began moving in from 1996. Its student dormitories form the Studentendorf Hibuka, whose name is short for Hindenburgkaserne. The Tübingen council decided in 2012 that the name Hindenburg-Kaserne should no longer be used.

The complex divides into two sections: the western Quartier Désazars de Montgailhard and the eastern Quartier de Maud'huy, each serving different purposes. Both areas can be explored on foot as they are connected by pathways.

On 18 April 1944 air raids hit the eastern part of the barracks and the freight yard tracks; one building is clearly recognisable as destroyed on old aerial photographs. Several bomb craters were left in the area of today's Mistralweg and the Wankheimer Täle.
