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 district is currently taking shape. Since the troops withdrew in 2014, visionary planning and sustainable construction have been underway, with a clear focus on modern, urban living.
The new quarter ideally combines living, working, culture, services, and social facilities. The Bamberg municipal utilities play a central role: with pioneering heating and mobility concepts, they significantly contribute to making the project an inner-city model 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 mounted regiment of the Bavarian cavalry. By carefully integrating the historic building fabric, a unique living experience is created—full of character and history, 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 distinctive district, and in extraordinary buildings—the Sunshine Lofts combine central urban living with urban innovation and historic charm.
The new “Lagarde” quarter is being built on the site of the former barracks and not only offers 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 centre—in just about 12 minutes by bicycle, you can reach the historic old town, the pedestrian zone, and the popular nightlife district around Sandstraße.
Public transportation is ideally connected: the bus stop “Bamberg Lagarde Kaserne” is located right nearby. It’s only about 8 minutes to the main train station—or 18 minutes on foot. Drivers will appreciate the quick access to the A73 motorway (toward Erfurt/Nuremberg) and A70 motorway (toward Bayreuth/Schweinfurt), each in approximately 7 minutes.
Everything you need for daily life is in the immediate vicinity: 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 friendly shopping without packaging—reachable by bicycle in about 10 minutes. Medical care is also excellent: nearby you’ll find medical centres with general practitioners and specialists, as well as facilities for preventive healthcare.
Families benefit from a wide range of daycare centres, schools, and further education facilities right in the district, making the Sunshine Lofts an ideal place for all generations.
Leisure and recreation are also well provided for: within a few minutes by bike, you can reach numerous sports and recreational facilities such as the Bambados swimming pool, the club pool of FC Eintracht Bamberg, the MTV Fitness and Health Centre, a fitness trail, and the nearby “Teufelsgraben” hiking trail.
And not to forget: Bamberg itself—with around 77,600 inhabitants—is not only part of the Nuremberg metropolitan region but also an important economic and cultural centre in Upper Franconia. The UNESCO World Heritage old town, with its historic buildings, winding lanes, and unique charm, is not without reason nicknamed “the Franconian Rome.”
