Ladies and gentlemen,
I am looking for old photos and veterans of the U.S. Bremen Enclave1945-48, particularly about the officer Club HOHEHORST.
Can you help me in my search?
Veterans of world war II: Memory of BREMEN ENVLAVE/ Germany 1945-1948
Do you remember the building “manor-house HOHEHORST” in LÖHNHORST, a small village at the outskirts of BREMEN ?
Here was an officer club from 1945-1948 for US troops in the Bremen Enclave.

- OSTERHOLZ-SCHARMBECK (distance 15 km): Headquarter 175th Infantry Regiment
- Camp SCHWANEWEDE (distance 5 km): troops? (roundabout 2000 soldiers), there was an “Army Service Club”, too
About the manor-house HOHEHORST (Officer Club) we have no photos or documents in our village out of this time for chronicle purposes.
We are looking particularly for a bronze sculpture (in life size), goddess: “Diana, the Huntress with group of deer” out of the park of the manor-house HOHEHORST.
Witnesses reported, that US troops took the statue with them, when they left.
We would like to know, where the statue is at his time (perhaps in US barracks or a private-garden)?
So we may negotiate to get the statue back if possible.
We are also interested in private photos and documents from the US military time in Bremen .
Perhaps family members of former veterans would be interested to contribute items, such as photos etc. from this time in BREMEN .
Please send all information to retired captain of the German Federal Armed Forces:
