Imagine becoming part of one of the most innovative urban development projects in Europe! On the site of the former Lagarde Barracks in Bamberg—which was part of the US military base for over 69 years—a completely new urban district is currently being developed. Since the troops withdrew in 2014, visionary planning and sustainable construction have been underway here, with a clear focus on modern, urban living.
The new district ideally blends residential living, working spaces, cultural offerings, services, and social facilities. The Bamberg municipal utilities play a central role: with their forward-thinking heating and mobility concepts, they significantly contribute to making the project a showcase inner-city district in terms of environmental friendliness and sustainability.
The Sunshine Lofts are created in buildings originally constructed as single-story barracks for a cavalry regiment of the Bavarian cavalry. By carefully integrating the historic building fabric, a unique living atmosphere is achieved—rich in character and history, yet interpreted in a modern and high-quality way.
This is a two-room apartment with 60.73 m² and a balcony.
Living in a special city, in a unique district, and in exceptional buildings—the Sunshine Lofts combine central urban living with innovative urban design and historical charm.
The new “Lagarde” district is being developed on the grounds of the former barracks and not only offers unique living spaces but also a modern living environment with short distances, great connectivity, and a high quality of life. The location impresses with its proximity to Bamberg’s city centre: in just about 12 minutes you can reach the historic old town, the pedestrian zone, and the popular nightlife area around Sandstraße by bicycle.
Public transport connections are ideal: the bus stop “Bamberg Lagarde Kaserne” is located very nearby. From there, it is only about 8 minutes to the main train station by bus—or 18 minutes on foot. Drivers benefit from the quick accessibility of highways A73 (towards Erfurt/Nuremberg) and A70 (towards Bayreuth/Schweinfurt), each reachable in approximately 7 minutes.
In the immediate vicinity, you will find everything you need for everyday life: supermarkets such as Aldi, Rewe, Lidl, and Tegut are just a few minutes away by car. A special highlight is the store “Unverpackt Bamberg,” which offers environmentally friendly shopping entirely without packaging—reachable by bicycle in about 10 minutes. Medical care is also excellent: nearby are medical centers with general practitioners and specialists as well as facilities for preventive healthcare.
Families benefit from a wide range of daycare centres, schools, and continuing education institutions right in the district. This makes the Sunshine Lofts an ideal place for residents of all generations.
Recreation and leisure are also well catered for: in just a few minutes by bicycle, you can access a variety of sports and leisure facilities such as the Bambados swimming pool, the FC Eintracht Bamberg club pool, the MTV Fitness and Health Centre, a fitness trail, as well as the nearby “Teufelsgraben” hiking trail.
And not to forget: Bamberg itself—with about 77,600 inhabitants—is not only part of the Nuremberg metropolitan region, but also a significant economic and cultural centre of Upper Franconia. The UNESCO World Heritage old town, with its historic buildings, labyrinthine alleys, and special charm, is not called “the Franconian Rome” for nothing.
