The barracks on Pappelallee beside the former Bornstedter Feld drill ground were built from 1935 for a battalion of an infantry regiment. After the Second World War they were taken over by Soviet forces — artillery units were stationed here and adapted the complex to their needs; until they left in the early 1990s the site was closed to the public. In 1994 the first departments of Potsdam University of Applied Sciences moved into four renovated blocks, and since summer 2017 all its students have studied on this campus.
Казармы на Паппельаллее у бывшего учебного плаца Борнштедтер-Фельд построены с 1935 года для батальона пехотного полка. После Второй мировой войны их заняли советские войска — здесь стояли артиллерийские части, которые достроили комплекс под свои нужды; до их ухода в начале 1990-х годов территория была закрыта для горожан. В 1994 году в четыре отремонтированных корпуса въехали первые факультеты Высшей школы Потсдама, а с лета 2017 года на этом кампусе учатся все её студенты.
