Junkerhohlweg-Kaserne, Military barracks in Duburg district, Flensburg, Germany.
The Junkerhohlweg-Kaserne is a three-story yellow brick building in the Duburg district, constructed between 1893 and 1897 as a military installation. The structure displays typical barracks features of that era with regular windows and a functional facade.
The barracks was built in the 1890s as an extension for the nearby Duburg Regiment and remained in military use through the mid-20th century. After World War II it served as a refugee shelter before later conversion to residential space.
The name refers to a historic street in the city, and the building embodies Prussian military design principles of its era. Visitors notice in the yellow brickwork and layout the ordered approach to barracks architecture from that period.
The site functions today as a residential complex and retains much of its original structure. Visitors should know this is not a public museum but an occupied building with limited access to common areas.
The local football club trained on the barracks courtyard in its early years before acquiring its own ground. This overlooked detail links the building to the city's sports history.
