Beautiful photos of a beautiful town. They bring back many happy memories of a number of holidays spent there with a local family friend.

I was in Hildesheim 1952-4 In Tofrek barracks 2RHA. With my permanent pass I spent quit a bit of time in the town. These photos are a credit to the citizens ability to build their town up again. Vastly different to how I remember it.

Out of all the places I was posted to during my time with the British Army, I have to say that Hildersheim was probably the most beautiful town of them all. I have nothing but fond memories of the town and it's people.

I was in 2RHA at Tofrek Barracks from early 1950 until demob in 1951. Hildesheim was then still a shambles from the WW II bombing. It now looks beautiful on the evidence of these photos. What staggering skill Has been used in the reconstruction of the historic buildings!

Served with the REME 81-84, went back in 2000 for a week. Keep saying I must go back again. Nice set of photos.

I lived at Tofrek Barracks for 7 years from the end of 1972 and loved it . I,m going back next year and am going to stay at the hostel on the old camp .

Great photos and much appreciated as they reinforce happy memories of the people and places of Hildesheim 1959-60. The Ratskeller served welsh rarebit which reminded me of my home at the time in Wales. In reply to Guest (14 May 2013) the memorial at the once British occupied Tofrek Barracks, is to the Fliegerhorst (paratroopers) who had been stationed at the Flughaven Kaserne and died for their country. Photos can be found searching www.panoramio.com. and mentioned on www.1rtr.net/hildesheim3

No matter which site I have visited, no photograph of a memroial within the old Tofrek Barracks can be found. It was a square colum with an eagle on top of it, it had writting on it but I never knew what it said nor what the memorial was for. Can anyone help.

Thanks for sharing the great pix. I teach European history in the U. S. and needed pix of guild halls. I visited Hildesheim in 2005 and remembered the butchers' guild . . . so your pix are perfect for my class.
