Interesting hike over the training area of the Westfalen barracks in Hamm Heesen. May only be entered after the practice times!

In 1959, shortly after the Bundeswehr was set up, the Westphalia barracks in the "Heessener Busch" between Ahlen and Hamm-Heessen, a former property of Baron von Boeselager, was completed. This also includes a tank wash, a shooting range, an ammunition depot and an arms store.

The area is spacious, rather boring for me ... but the old tanks are great for photo shoots 🧙
