Views of former U.S. Army barracks in Wuerzburg, Kitzingen Schweinfurt,
which are not to be found in any tourist information!
zwischen 2006 und 2014 verließ die U.S. Army unter anderem Würzburg, Schweinfurt, Kitzingen und Giebelstadt.
Die Fotos zeigen die Kaserne kurz nach dem Verlassen, in Zeiten des Stillstandes und auch nach dem Umbau in z.B. Bezirke, Universitätserweiterungen oder Gewerbegebiete.
between 2006 and 2014, the U.S. Army left Wuerzburg, Schweinfurt, Kitzingen and Giebelstadt, among others.
The photos show the barracks shortly after leaving, in times of stagnation and also after the conversion into e.g. districts, university extensions or industrial areas.
All photos of the barracks were taken with the official permission of the associated institutions!

Harvey Barracks - Battlefield trainings area
Harvey Barracks/Kitzingen Army Airfield is a former United States Army 1st Infantry Division (1st ID) facility in Germany, located about 3,5 km east-northeast of Kitzingen (Bavaria), about 390 km southwest of Berlin.
Formerly part of the United States Army Würzburg military community, it was a 1st ID garrison since 1996 and prior to that it was home to 3rd ID 2nd Brigade. Originally built in 1917, the installation served as a training school for German pilots in World War I. The German Luftwaffe used the base a generation later to train the pilots of dive bombers and pursuit planes during World War II. The Americans took control in April 1945 and used it as an air base until being turned over to the 1st ID in 1947. It was closed on 29 March 2007 and turned over to the German Government as part of a USAREUR restructuring announced in 2005 which returns the 1st ID to the United States.
A few weeks after my last photoshoot, the buildings were demolished!
