Army test site Kummersdorf Development concept for a former military property

The conversion area airfield/garrison Sperenberg and army testing station Kummersdorf-Gut in the property Kummersdorf-Gut/Sperenberg is located in the state of Brandenburg about 40 km south of Berlin in the district of Teltow-Fläming.

On the army testing station military technology was developed and tested between 1875 and 1994. Since the abandonment of use of the site in 1994, the land lies fallow and is increasingly subject to decay over time and weather. Today, the conversion area is listed as "Heeresversuchsanstalt Kummersdorf" and is the largest technical monument in the state of Brandenburg.

The BImA commissioned the preparation of a development concept for a sensible subsequent use of the property for the total area of 36 km2. The development concept provides for a joint overall development of the property with particular regard to the energy policy objectives of the Federal Government and the Government of the State of Brandenburg.
In addition, a spatial and content-related dovetailing of the use of renewable energies with the requirements of an accessible monument landscape is aimed for.

In the phase of processing the basic information, a large amount of cartographic data was collected and prepared for use in a drawing program.
The development concept was preceded in 2013 by a monument-related study for a partial area of the army testing site.
