The barracks were built in 1898–1899 for a hussar regiment and bore the name of Emperor Wilhelm; after the Second World War they were known as the Gábor Áron Barracks. Soviet troops moved into the complex in the 1950s, enlarged the site by about half and erected nineteen new buildings. On the withdrawal of the troops in 1990–1991 the complex passed to the Hungarian state, and in the 1990s it was handed over to higher education in Debrecen.

Казармы построены в 1898–1899 годах для гусарского полка и носили имя императора Вильгельма; после Второй мировой войны они назывались казармами Габора Арона. Советские войска заняли комплекс в 1950-х годах, расширили территорию примерно наполовину и построили девятнадцать новых зданий. При выводе войск в 1990–1991 годах комплекс перешёл венгерскому государству, а в 1990-х годах был передан высшей школе Дебрецена.
