Tapijnkazerne, Military barracks complex in Maastricht, Netherlands
The Tapijnkazerne spans 6.3 hectares on the south side of Maastricht center, bordered by the Jeker river and Sint Hubertuslaan street.
Built in 1919 after filling a branch of the Jeker River, the barracks housed the 13th Infantry Regiment and later served NATO forces until 2010.
The architectural design by Captain C.E. Blaauw reflects the Traditionalist School style, similar to other military structures from that period in the Netherlands.
Since 2013, Maastricht University has transformed the buildings into educational facilities with lecture halls and study spaces for the Science Programme.
The naming system of interior spaces follows the NATO phonetic alphabet, connecting the current educational purpose with its military background.
