WELCOME TO THE SUN SHINE 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 served as part of the American military site for over 69 years—a completely new urban district is now emerging. 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 quarter ideally combines residential spaces, workplaces, cultural venues, services, and social facilities. Bamberg’s municipal utilities play a central role: with forward-thinking heating and mobility concepts, they significantly contribute to making the project an in-city flagship district in terms of environmental friendliness and sustainability.
The Sunshine Lofts are created within 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 imbued with character and history is achieved—modernly interpreted and executed to a high standard.
The offered unit is a high-quality furnished one-room apartment that impresses with a modern fitted kitchen (complete with a washing machine) and provides contemporary living comfort at a high level.
Living in a distinctive city, in a special district, and in exceptional buildings—the Sunshine Lofts combine central urban life with urban innovation and historical charm.
The new “Lagarde” district is developed on the former barracks site and not only offers unique living space but also a modern living environment characterized by short distances, excellent connectivity, and high quality of life. The location is particularly attractive due to its proximity to Bamberg’s city center: in only about 12 minutes by bike, you can reach the historic old town, the pedestrian zone, and the popular nightlife area around Sandstraße.
Public transport connections are ideal: the “Bamberg Lagarde Kaserne” bus stop is in the immediate vicinity. From there, it’s just about an 8-minute ride to the main train station—or an 18-minute walk. Drivers benefit from quick access to highways A73 (toward Erfurt/Nuremberg) and A70 (toward Bayreuth/Schweinfurt), each reachable in approximately 7 minutes.
In the immediate area, you’ll find everything needed for daily life: supermarkets such as Aldi, Rewe, Lidl, and Tegut are just a few minutes away by car. A particular highlight is the “Unverpackt Bamberg” store, which facilitates environmentally conscious, packaging-free shopping—about a 10-minute bike ride away. Medical care is excellent too; there are nearby doctors’ centers housing both general practitioners and specialists, as well as facilities for preventative health measures.
Families benefit from a wide range of daycare centers, schools, and continuing education institutions right in the district, making the Sunshine Lofts an ideal spot for every generation.
Recreation and leisure needs are well catered for as well: in just a few minutes by bike, you can access numerous 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 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 center of Upper Franconia. The UNESCO World Heritage-listed old town, with its historic buildings, winding alleys, and unique flair, is no wonderingly nicknamed “the Franconian Rome.”
