Even if in terms of the highest intensity of construction and development of the modern military barracks, we may consider the period of dualist Austria-Hungary as the breakthrough period. The army played an important role in the process of formation of the common state of the Czechs and Slovaks as well. The military design office operating under the Territorial Military Building Directorate and established during the First Czechoslovak Republic had taken over the spatial and layout regulations from the monarchy era, however, due to the territorial repartitioning, it had to build a lot of new military structures in the newly originated border areas. Thus, several large barrack areas grew all around the country, often influencing the material structure of the cities and its subsequent construction development in a substantial way. Therefore (as a follow-up to the contribution published in the previous issue of the Vojenská história journal 4/2017), the study clarifies the architectural, historical and social development of the barracks after 1918 and analyses the impact of military architecture on the appearance of the selected Slovak cities. The text characteristics of individual settlements and barracks are accompanied by the graphic map schemes marking the spatial effect of the military buildings.
