1946—1950
Frankfurter Ring: Funkkaserne
Military accommodation was used to accommodate displaced persons and as a transit center, probably from January 1946 onward. DPs were registered here when they first arrived and distributed among different camps. They were also given advice related to their forthcoming emigration. The transit camp was always overcrowded; although it had a maximum capacity of 600 persons, up to 1,800 were sometimes taken in. In 1948, the transit section was moved to the former SS barracks in Freimann. In spring 1950 the barracks in the Funkkaserne were closed completely.
