Kemmelkaserne, Military barracks in Trier, Germany

Kemmelkaserne is a former barracks complex on the Petrisberg in Trier-Kürenz, built in 1936/37 and extending from Sickingenstrasse. Most of the original buildings were demolished during conversion after 1999, but the larger structures remain and have been rebuilt as offices and flats. Their original form is still recognisable despite additions and coloured facades. The former military hospital now houses Campus II of the University of Trier.

Kemmelkaserne was built in 1936/37 as part of the Wehrmacht's rearmament and named after the Flemish village of Kemmel, destroyed in World War I. From 1937 to 1945 the Artillerie-Regiment 34 of the 72. Infanterie-Division was garrisoned there. From February 1941 the neighbouring Stalag XII D held prisoners of war, among them Jean-Paul Sartre from August 1940 to March 1941. After the war the French army used the site as Quartier Belvedère until 1999.

The complex takes its name from the Flemish village of Kemmel, which was destroyed during World War I. This naming choice reflects the region's connections to the broader European conflicts of that era.

The site is now open to the public and accommodates mixed uses including residential areas and a science park. Visitors should note that some buildings serve university functions and may have restricted access.

A section of the former military barracks was converted into Campus II of the University of Trier after 1999. This new university campus now houses departments including geography, computer science, and business studies.
