Kemmelkaserne, Military barracks in Trier, Germany
The Kemmelkaserne extends along Sickingenstrasse in the district of Trier-Kürenz, featuring standardized architectural elements of 1930s military construction.
Built between 1936 and 1937 during Wehrmacht rearmament, the structure received its name from the Flemish village of Kemmel, destroyed in World War I.
The adjacent Stalag XII D prisoner-of-war camp held French philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre from August 1940 to March 1941 among other Western European detainees.
Following French military departure in 1999, the complex transformed into Quartier Belvedere, now incorporating science park facilities and residential spaces.
The former military hospital section currently houses Campus II of the University of Trier, dedicated to geography, computer science, and business informatics studies.
