history
The barracks was built in the 1960s for what was then the military office. The federal government had previously decided to relocate as many military departments as possible, subordinate to the Federal Ministry of Defense (BMVg), to the Cologne area. During the planning phase, the idea arose of accommodating the MAD's headquarters, the Office for Security of the Federal Armed Forces (ASBw), which is still located in Bonn. The new building gave the ASBw the opportunity to make structural demands, for example for card indexes and laboratories. Synergy effects such as the joint guarding of the property and the shared use of the modern bunker systems could also be used. At the end of 1964 the ASBw moved into the barracks.
