From military site to industrial location: After the withdrawal of Russian troops, the Eisenach-Kindel military training area became partly a national park, partly a location with a commercial airfield – today with around 10 companies.
The industrial location Erfurter Kreuz in Arnstadt/Amt Wachsenburg started in 2005 with the settlement of N3 Engine Overhaul Services. Today, the area is one of the largest in Thuringia.
After the implementation of consistent conversion measures, the former military area has developed into an attractive commercial area on the northeastern outskirts of Altenburg.
