Elias Beeckmankazerne, Military barracks and national monument in Ede, Netherlands.

The military complex features six barrack buildings, a kitchen facility, and administrative structures arranged around a central parade ground in brick architecture.

Constructed in 1939, the barracks initially housed the 22nd Infantry Regiment and later served as a training facility for German forces during World War II.

The buildings exemplify rational expressionist architecture from the 1930s, with consistent brick design and functional separation throughout the complex.

The facility transferred to the municipality of Ede in 2011 and will incorporate 315 residential units while preserving several historical structures.

The barracks marked the foundation site of the Vereniging van Dienstplichtig Militairen in 1966, establishing the first union for conscripted soldiers worldwide.
