British Army Germany is the superior institution under which the remaining installations of the British Forces Germany are organised after the completion of the withdrawal of the British Forces from Germany in February 2020. Apart from the Alpine Training Centre Bavaria in Oberstdorf, which is in Bavaria, British Army Germany is entirely based in North Rhine-Westphalia.
