The Theater Military Police School that trained US Constabulary soldiers during the occupation of Germany was located at Nellingen.
[2] Most of the units stationed at Nellingen from the 1950s onward were assigned to the VII Corps (US) headquartered nearby at Kelley Barracks, also serving as an Army Medical Helicopter airfield, and was part of the Stuttgart Military Community.
Nellingen Kaserne was closed as part of the US Forces drawdown after German Reunification and the Gulf War.
[5] Additionally, a new town hall within the development was given a special mention in the European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture/Mies van der Rohe Awards for 2003.
Very little of the former US installation remains, but a few of the pre World War II buildings from the Luftwaffe have been remodeled and retained.
