Festungspionierschule, Military barracks in Karlshorst, Germany
The Festungspionierschule complex contains twenty buildings arranged symmetrically around a central structure with lecture halls and an auditorium.
The Wehrmacht officer training facility opened in 1937 and later served as headquarters for the Soviet Military Administration from 1945 to 1949.
The former officers' casino building now houses the German-Russian Museum, presenting exhibitions about World War II and German-Soviet relations.
The 12.5-hectare property underwent extensive renovation between 2008 and 2014, transforming the military buildings into residential housing units.
The facility became the largest KGB center outside the Soviet Union, operating from 1963 until the withdrawal of Soviet forces in 1994.
