List of military facilities and units in Cologne
Antiquity
Pre-Roman times
Finds in Cologne-Lindenthal indicate an early permanent settlement around 4500 BC. Close. At least in the time of the Celts, at least in other places, e.g. B. in the southern German town of Manching, the Oppidum complex of Manching , strong fortified settlements with weapons finds proven. Since weapons were expensive and rare and their use required practice, groups trained for protection tasks and Celtic warfare are likely, possibly also in Cologne. On the other hand, no finds of a collection of Celtic or other pre-Roman weapons or armor are known for Cologne.
Romans, 55 BC Until approx. 454 AD
Roman troops under Gaius Iulius Caesar had in the Gallic War until 55 BC. BC conquered the areas of Gaul on the left bank of the Rhine . The exact date of the establishment of a Roman settlement in Cologne has not been established; the year 38 BC is generally assumed. Adopted. To date (2013) there is no evidence of military accommodation in Cologne. The discovery of early Roman militaria on Breslauer Platz as part of the construction of new underground lines in Cologne could provide clues. However, this area was outside the Roman city wall. At the end of the Augustan period (after the Varus Battle ) the 1st, 5th, 10th and 21st Legions are said to have been in summer camp on the banks of the Rhine, but where these camps were is not known. The 1st and 20th legions are said to have been in a camp together on the Ubier civitas area.
The Divitia / Deutz camp is documented for the first time for 310.

- Colonia Claudia Ara Agrippinensium , likely to be housed in permanent structures, etc. a. Legio I Germanica from 9 AD to 16 AD, Legio XX Valeria Victrix (20th Valerian Legion with the nickname "The Victorious")
- Divitia / Deutz, collective accommodation initially in tents, then in permanent buildings, etc. a. Legio I Germanica from 9 AD to 16 AD, Legio XX Valeria Victrix (20th Valerian Legion with the nickname "The Victorious")
- Fleet fort Alteburg , Raderthal
The names of the following units - legions , cohorts , aliens , fleet, numbers , guard units - come from Roman stone inscriptions from Cologne. Thus, this is not sure proof that the unit was actually in Cologne - the dead person or the person mentioned had a relationship with this unit in any case, from holidaymakers to veterans of non-local units, everything is possible.

Francs
The Franks were from the 3rd century with the beginning of the migration of peoples long warlike actively centuries. It is possible that they too had had camps with fixed units.
Middle Ages 6th to 15th centuries
The city wall with gates, towers and casemates? was guarded by guards who probably stayed overnight in their private quarters in times of peace. After the medieval Cologne city wall was completed around 1200, the gate castles were then built. Presumably the Cologne archbishops had a permanent “bodyguard”; possibly they had special accommodation.
In 1096 a meeting point for crusaders from the Lower Rhine area was established in Cologne . In Cologne, they looted and pillaged the Jewish quarter before setting off for Jerusalem on the 1st Crusade .
Modern times
According to the resolutions of the Reichstag in Nuremberg in 1422 and in Worms in 1521 , an army was set up. It is not known to what extent units of this existed before the Rote Funken in Cologne.
City soldiers / Rote Funken , 1681 to 1794
Accommodation unknown, probably typical of the time in private quarters, especially when reinforcements in times of war, duty stations divided into archways, town hall and Neumarkt

German units
Due to the Versailles Treaty , the Rhineland was a demilitarized zone and therefore no German units were allowed to be stationed in Cologne. But after negotiations with the victorious powers z. In some cases barracked police units were built up, some of which were structured militarily from 1933 and were transferred to the Reichswehr from 1935 or in Cologne from 1936 .
Wehrmacht from 1936
In 1936 the Wehrmacht marched into the demilitarized zone in Cologne as part of the occupation of the Rhineland .

Belgian armed forces
see also Belgian Armed Forces in Cologne and Belgian Armed Forces in Germany
After the Second World War, on May 15, 1945, the Piron Brigade was the first to march into Germany as an auxiliary on behalf of the British occupying army. The Belgian Armed Forces in Germany (nl. Belgische Strijdkrachten in Duitsland BSD, French Forces Belges en Allemagne FBA) were stationed on the southern edge of the British occupation zone in an area of North Rhine-Westphalia and Hesse between Aachen and Kassel .
In Cologne, the Belgian headquarters, coming from Bonn, moved into the Haelen barracks, the former Etzel barracks of the Wehrmacht, Dürener Str, Cologne-Junkersdorf. This was followed by the Consulate General in the Belgian House, Maison Belge, Cäcilienstraße, which was built by the Belgian government in 1948/49. Then other military units followed, often up to the construction or expansion of barracks, initially in temporary accommodation.
- The former pioneer port of the Wehrmacht was also used on the Rhine, but it silted up more and more.
- In the Wahner Heide on the city limits of Altenrath Kwartier Maj SBH-BEM Legrand was built.
- In Troisdorf-Spich, the Kamp Vlaanderen, later renamed Camp Roi Baudouin-Kamp Koning Boudewijn, was built.
- In the Wahner Heide and in the Königsforst, a large military training area was developed from the existing training area, including a firing range and tank loading facility.
- In 1953 the military tribunal of the armed forces moved into the converted Villa Vorster in Marienburg.
- The former Israelite asylum for the sick and the elderly on Ottostrasse in Neuehrenfeld, confiscated by the National Socialists in 1942, was expanded as a military hospital.
- Furthermore, the necessary infrastructure facilities for a large foreign garrison were built in Cologne, including Belgian department stores and cinemas. The Belgian institutions and residential areas were supplied with local information via a separate transmission and reception mast at Bachem for Belgian television and other relay stations. The children were looked after in five primary schools in Ossendorf, Dellbrück, Weiden, Rodenkirchen and Westhoven / Eil with affiliated day-care centers. There were secondary schools in the form of a Walloon grammar school in Rösrath and a Flemish one in the baroque castle of Bensberg. From 1953 there was also a military canteen for Belgian families outside the barracks in Porz, Helmholtzstrasse.
- Tank ramps were built on the Rhine in Zündorf and opposite in white, built for escape and supply in the event of a crisis.
