Kellinghusen in transition: plans for the former Liliencron barracks

Significant changes are coming to the charming town of Kellinghusen, which is located in the Steinburg district. On Wednesday evening, June 25, 2025, at 6:30 p.m., the council members will meet in the community center to discuss the second amendment to the development plan for the former Liliencron barracks. This is announced by NDR. The promised innovations could have a lasting impact on the city.

The planning area will see a reduction in a certain area and at the same time a road will be widened. These changes are part of a longer-term vision that aims to transform the use of this historic site into contemporary housing and care facilities. Plans include, among other things, the construction of residential buildings and the construction of a daycare center.

The location and population

Kellinghusen, with a population of around 8,150 (as of December 31, 2021), is not only a town with tradition, but also a place that is always striving to develop further. The local administration is located at Markt 1 and offers citizens a visiting period from 8:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Tuesday to Friday.

Another construction project next to the Liliencron barracks includes the new development area on Luisenberger Straße, which is equipped with a water connection and a sidewalk. Development measures there have already been largely completed, and the availability of free building sites promises future residential projects. Further initiatives, such as the development plans for an apartment building on Lindenstrasse and for a general residential area on Lockstedter Weg, show the city's commitment to creating new living spaces. bebauungsplan24 also provides information on this.

Legal framework

The changes to the development plan are not just a question of desire, but must also be legally secured. As the Ministry of the Interior, Municipal Affairs, Housing and Sport explains, it exercises legal supervision over the building code and approves certain building plans. These processes are important to ensure that all urban development goals as well as economic and demographic developments are taken into account.

The possibility of making changes to the development plans also depends on the need to adapt to legal requirements or to correct existing errors. Citizens can find out about the current development plans via the Digital Atlas North and actively participate in the process by contributing their opinions.

The developments around the Liliencronkaserne show that Kellinghusen is well on the way to mastering the challenges of modern urban planning. With a good hand and the participation of citizens, the city could soon become a lot more colorful and livable.
