Reitzenstein garden city
The Reitzenstein garden city (often abbreviated as “Reika”, from Reitzenstein barracks ) is an area in Düsseldorf where a residential area close to the city center has arisen. In 2010 the development plan was drawn up. The site is located at the intersection of the districts of Mörsenbroich , Grafenberg and Düsseltal .
After the occupation of the Rhineland (1936) , the Reitzenstein barracks for the Wehrmacht were built on the site (Graf-Recke-Straße ) in 1937 , after which it was mainly used by the military. After the Second World War , the barracks was used by the German Armed Forces from 1956 to 2006 , with the following departments stationed:
- Headquarters 7th Armored Division
