Hohenbogen-Kaserne

Hohenbogen-Kaserne, Former military barracks in Bad Kötzting, Germany

Hohenbogen-Kaserne is a former Bundeswehr barracks in Bad Kötzting, built in 1965 and named after the nearby Hoher Bogen ridge. Its buildings housed the Fernmeldesektor F of Fernmelderegiment 72, an Air Force signals unit whose operating post was the reconnaissance tower on the Hoher Bogen. The barracks was given up in 2004 and has served since 2015 as a youth, sports and conference centre.

The Hohenbogen-Kaserne was built in 1965 for the Fernmeldesektor F of Fernmelderegiment 72, a Luftwaffe unit established at Furth im Wald in 1961. The unit's operating post was the reconnaissance tower on the Hoher Bogen ridge. After the post-1990 troop reductions the sector was dissolved, the barracks were given up in 2004, and since 2015 the site has served as a youth, sports and conference centre.

The site served as a key communication hub during Cold War times, monitoring activities in this border region. The towers and structures now stand as reminders of that period in German history.

The former barracks grounds in Bad Kötzting have housed a youth, sports and conference centre since 2015, so the buildings are used for group stays and events rather than military purposes. The site lies in the town of Bad Kötzting, below the Hoher Bogen ridge that gave the barracks its name.

The barracks takes its name from the Hoher Bogen ridge, and the unit stationed here, Fernmeldesektor F of Fernmelderegiment 72, ran its operations post at the reconnaissance tower on that ridge. The regiment itself was set up in Furth im Wald in 1961, four years before the barracks was built.
