Royal Prussian Main Cadet Institute, Military academy in Groß-Lichterfelde, Germany

The Royal Prussian Main Cadet Institute features multiple buildings designed for military education, with administration offices and training facilities spread across the campus.

Established in 1873, the institute trained officer cadets for the Prussian Army until 1920, when it closed following the aftermath of World War I.
