Rammelsberg-Kaserne, Military barracks in Goslar, Germany
Rammelsberg-Kaserne is a military barracks in Goslar featuring Neo-Renaissance style with a dome-topped central section and two perpendicular wings extending outward. The compound includes a courtyard with connected service buildings, stables, and auxiliary structures surrounding the main structure.
The barracks was built between 1912 and 1914 to house the Hannoversche Jäger-Bataillon Nr. 10 with military design standards. Following World War II, it later served as a Federal Border Protection facility.
The site is now called EnergieCampus Goslar. Since 2018 the former Wirtschaftsgebäude has housed the CampusKita "Zum Frankenberge", a daycare centre, and since 2009 the Fraunhofer Institute for Telecommunications has run a branch for fibre-optic sensor systems next door. The 2014 Batterie- und Sensoriktestzentrum is shared by the research bodies.
The site is now EnergieCampus Goslar, a research campus. The Fraunhofer Institute for Telecommunications has run an outpost for fibre-optic sensor systems next door since 2009, and the Battery and Sensor Test Centre opened in 2014. The CampusKita "Zum Frankenberge" daycare has occupied the converted former economic building since early 2018. Expect working research and childcare areas rather than open visitor access.
The main building's central risalit is topped by a hood-like roof, and a free staircase descends from it to the Ehrenhof, the lower courtyard ringed by smaller buildings that once served as economic building, stables and orangery at a baroque palace. The complex was modelled on Weser Renaissance residence palaces.
