Welcome to the Sunshine Lofts!

Imagine becoming part of one of Europe’s most innovative urban development projects! On the grounds of the former Lagarde Barracks in Bamberg—which was part of the US military base for over 69 years—a completely new neighborhood is currently emerging. Since the troops withdrew in 2014, visionary planning and sustainable construction have been at work here, with a clear focus on modern, urban living.

The new district perfectly combines housing, working, culture, services, and social facilities. Bamberg’s municipal utilities play a central role: with their forward-thinking heating and mobility concepts, they significantly contribute to making the project a model urban district in terms of environmental friendliness and sustainability.

The Sunshine Lofts are being developed in buildings that were originally constructed as single-story barracks for a cavalry regiment of the Bavarian cavalry. By carefully integrating the historic building fabric, a unique living experience with character and history is created—modernly interpreted and executed to a high standard.

This is a 2-room apartment with 50.59 m² and a balcony.

Living in a special city, in a unique neighborhood, and in extraordinary buildings—the Sunshine Lofts combine central urban living with innovative design and historic charm.

The new “Lagarde” district is being developed on the site of the former barracks and offers not only unique living space but also a modern living environment with short distances, excellent connectivity, and high quality of life. Its location is impressive due to its proximity to Bamberg’s city centre: in just about 12 minutes by bicycle you can reach the historic old town, the pedestrian zone, and the popular nightlife area around Sandstraße.

Connections to public transportation are ideal: the “Bamberg Lagarde Kaserne” bus stop is located right nearby. From there, it’s only about 8 minutes to the main train station—or 18 minutes on foot. Drivers benefit from the quick access to highways A73 (towards Erfurt/Nuremberg) and A70 (towards Bayreuth/Schweinfurt), each in approximately 7 minutes.

In the immediate vicinity you will find everything you need for daily life: supermarkets such as Aldi, Rewe, Lidl, and Tegut are only a few minutes away by car. A special highlight is the “Unverpackt Bamberg” store, which offers eco-friendly shopping without any packaging—reachable by bicycle in about 10 minutes. Medical care is excellent too: nearby, you’ll find medical centers with general practitioners and specialists as well as facilities for preventive healthcare.

Families benefit from a wide range of daycare centers, schools, and further education institutions right in the neighbourhood, making the Sunshine Lofts an ideal place for all generations.

For leisure and recreation there’s plenty on offer: in just a few minutes by bike, you can reach various sports and leisure facilities such as the Bambados swimming pool, the FC Eintracht Bamberg club pool, the MTV Fitness and Health Center, a fitness trail, and the nearby “Teufelsgraben” hiking trail.

And let’s not forget Bamberg itself—with around 77,600 inhabitants, it is not only part of the Nuremberg metropolitan region but also an important economic and cultural centre in Upper Franconia. The UNESCO World Heritage-listed old town, with its historic buildings, winding alleys, and unique flair, has rightly earned the nickname “the Roman of Franconia.”
