Lausitz-Kaserne

Lausitz-Kaserne, Military barracks in Doberlug-Kirchhain, Germany.

Description

Lausitz-Kaserne is a military installation near Doberlug-Kirchhain situated across a forested area. The facility contains administrative buildings, training areas, and residential quarters located about 3 kilometers (1.9 miles) west of the town.

History

The site was transformed from a coal exploration facility between 1926 and 1959 into a military installation. During East Germany's period, it served as barracks for the National People's Army.

Culture

The barracks takes its name from the Lausitz region, linking local Brandenburg identity with military heritage.

Practical
