Eksjö Garrison

Eksjö Garrison, Military garrison in Eksjö, Sweden

Eksjö Garrison is a governmental listed military complex in Sweden that serves as a center for engineering operations and specialized training. The facility spans multiple buildings with dedicated areas for combat engineering, bomb disposal, and underwater operations.

The garrison was established in 1906 and initially housed the Småland Hussar Regiment until 1927. Subsequent regiments including the Kalmar and Småland units occupied the site before organizational changes in 2000 transformed its structure.

The complex maintains strong ties to Swedish military tradition through regular royal visits and serves as a working center for military personnel. This connection reflects its ongoing role in the nation's defense identity.

The site is spread across multiple buildings, which can help visitors understand the layout and different functional areas. Coming during daytime hours when staff are present allows for better access to information about the facility.

The complex hosts the Swedish EOD and Demining Centre, which provides specialized training in explosive ordnance disposal. This center teaches skills that support international security operations and humanitarian mine removal efforts worldwide.
