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 U.S. military base for over 69 years—an entirely new city district is currently taking shape. Since the withdrawal of the troops in 2014, visionary planning and sustainable construction have been underway here, with a clear focus on modern, urban living.
The new district ideally combines residential, work, cultural, service, and social facilities. The Bamberg municipal utilities play a central role: with forward-thinking heating and mobility concepts, they are significantly contributing to making the project a showcase inner-city district in terms of environmental friendliness and sustainability.
The Sunshine Lofts are created in buildings that were originally constructed as single-story structures for a riding regiment of the Bavarian cavalry. By carefully integrating the historic building fabric, a unique living experience is created—rich in character and history, yet modernly interpreted and high-quality implemented.
This is a one-room apartment with a fitted kitchen.
Living in a unique city, in a special district, and in exceptional buildings—the Sunshine Lofts combine central urban living with innovative urban design and historic charm.
The new “Lagarde” district is being developed on the site of the former barracks, offering not only unique living space but also a modern living environment with short distances, excellent connectivity, and a high quality of life. The location impresses with its proximity to Bamberg’s city center: in just about 12 minutes you can reach the historic old town, the pedestrian zone, and the popular nightlife district around Sandstraße by bicycle.
Public transportation is ideally connected: the “Bamberg Lagarde Kaserne” bus stop is located very close by. From there, it’s only about 8 minutes by bus to the main train station—or 18 minutes on foot. Drivers benefit from the swift accessibility of the A73 motorway (toward Erfurt/Nuremberg) and the A70 (toward Bayreuth/Schweinfurt), each reachable in roughly 7 minutes.
In the immediate vicinity, you’ll find everything you need on a daily basis: 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 enables environmentally conscious, packaging-free shopping—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 care.
Families benefit from a diverse range of options including daycare centers, schools, and further education facilities right in the district, making the Sunshine Lofts an ideal place for all generations.
For leisure and relaxation, you’re well catered for: in just a few minutes by bike, you can reach numerous sports and recreational 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 not to be forgotten: Bamberg itself—with approximately 77,600 inhabitants—is not only part of the Nuremberg metropolitan region but also an important economic and cultural center of Upper Franconia. The UNESCO World Heritage old town, with its historic buildings, winding alleys, and unique charm, is fondly nicknamed “the Franconian Rome.”
