United States Army Garrison Schweinfurt is a United States Army military community located in and around Schweinfurt, Germany. The garrison comprises two installations (Conn and Ledward Barracks), two housing areas (Askren Manor and Yorktown Village Housing Area), and a local training area.
The U.S. Army Garrison Schweinfurt is home for roughly 6,000 people, including about 2,000 Soldiers, family members, Department of Defense civilian employees and their dependents. USAG Schweinfurt is subordinate to United States Army Installation Management Command – Europe and is an indirect report garrison under USAG Ansbach.
The facility will be closed because of changes in the US-military-spending priorities (estimated: 2015[1]).
