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 more than 69 years—a completely new urban district is now emerging. 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 living, work, culture, services, and social facilities. The Bamberg municipal utilities play a central role: with forward-thinking heating and mobility concepts, they contribute significantly to making the project a model inner-city district in terms of environmental friendliness and sustainability.
The Sunshine Lofts are being developed in buildings originally constructed as single-storey structures for a Bavarian cavalry regiment. 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 distinctive district, and in extraordinary buildings—the Sunshine Lofts combine central urban living with innovative urban design and historic charm.
The new "Lagarde" quarter is being built on the grounds of the former barracks and offers not only unique residential space but also a modern living environment with short distances, excellent connections, 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 area around Sandstraße.
Public transport connections are ideal: the bus stop "Bamberg Lagarde Kaserne" is in the immediate vicinity. It is only about 8 minutes to the main station by bus—or 18 minutes on foot. Drivers benefit from the quick access to the highways A73 (toward Erfurt/Nuremberg) and A70 (toward Bayreuth/Schweinfurt), each reachable in approximately 7 minutes.
Everything for everyday needs can be found in the immediate surroundings: supermarkets such as Aldi, Rewe, Lidl, and Tegut are only a few minutes away by car. A particular highlight is the store "Unverpackt Bamberg," which enables environmentally conscious shopping without any packaging and is reachable by bicycle in about 10 minutes. Medical care is excellent as well: nearby, there are medical centres featuring both general practitioners and specialists, as well as facilities for preventive health care.
Families benefit from a wide range of options including day care centres, schools, and further education institutions right in the district. This makes the Sunshine Lofts an ideal place for all generations.
Leisure and recreation are also well catered for: in just a few minutes by bicycle you can reach numerous sports and leisure facilities, such as the Bambados swimming pool, the club pool of FC Eintracht Bamberg, the MTV Fitness and Health Centre, an outdoor fitness trail, and the nearby hiking path "Teufelsgraben."
And not to forget: Bamberg itself—with approximately 77,600 inhabitants—is not only part of the Nuremberg metropolitan region, but also an important economic and cultural centre of Upper Franconia. Its UNESCO World Heritage Old Town, with its historic buildings, winding alleys, and unique ambience, has rightfully earned the nickname "Franconian Rome."
