List of French military locations in Germany
Locations of the French armed forces in Baden-Württemberg in 1990 |
Locations of the French armed forces in Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland in 1990 |
The list of French military locations in Germany lists all military facilities of French associations in Germany, both closed and existing. In order to preserve the originality, the place names - as far as it seemed reasonable - follow the designations used by the French armed forces (ie later community reforms are not taken into account).
The French military presence went back to the occupation immediately after 1945 and changed its structure only slightly during the Cold War . The garrisons were in the states of Baden, Württemberg-Hohenzollern, Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland created by the French occupation forces, as well as in Lindau, which, although located in Bavaria, still belonged to the French zone. Only Karlsruhe and Pforzheim in the American-controlled Württemberg-Baden made an exception here. In the 1950s, some associations were also stationed in Hesse .
The first headquarters of the Commander-in-Chief of the Armée Rhin et Danube , General Jean de Lattre de Tassigny, moved into Lindau. Here he received the Sultan of Morocco and the Bey of Tunis with oriental pomp in the summer of 1945 to honor the predominantly North African soldiers in his army. In the same year the headquarters of the occupation troops were relocated to Baden-Baden and General Pierre Kœnig , a Gaullist from the very beginning, took over the duties of Commander-in-Chief of the French Armed Forces in Germany and the Military Governor of the French Zone in the Hotel Stephanie. Baden-Baden remained the headquarters of the 1st Armée and the 2nd Corps d'Armée until 1999. In Baden-Baden there was a Soviet Military Mission (SMM), accredited by the Commander-in-Chief of the Forces Françaises en Allemagne (FFA), until German reunification.
The associations were subordinate to the high command:
- FFA = Forces françaises en Allemagne (French armed forces in Germany), Baden-Baden
From 1961 to 1966, French units were equipped with the nuclear-capable American weapon systems Honest John (Armée de terre) and Nike (Armée de l'air) and stationed on German soil. According to the principle of the two keys to the safekeeping of nuclear warheads, US custodial teams were also deployed at the locations. When France withdrew from NATO integration in 1966, the French air forces were withdrawn from Germany, Lahr went to the Canadian armed forces, Bremgarten to the air force of the German armed forces. The French land forces were no longer subject to NATO staff, but were to be used as a CENTAG reserve in the event of war . France therefore did not take over the intended combat strip at the Iron Curtain and did not provide any formations in the integrated air defense. The Nike anti-aircraft missiles, which had already been deployed at the Heuberg military training areas (Garrison Stetten am kalten Markt) and Münsingen, and in Friedrichshafen, were withdrawn, and the Air Force took over the space in the Hawk belt intended for France in Upper Bavaria.
