Military accommodation was used to accommodate displaced persons and as a transit center, probably from January 1946 onward. DPs were registered here when they first arrived and distributed among different camps. They were also given advice related to their forthcoming emigration. The transit camp was always overcrowded; although it had a maximum capacity of 600 persons, up to 1,800 were sometimes taken in. In 1948, the transit section was moved to the former SS barracks in Freimann. In spring 1950 the barracks in the Funkkaserne were closed completely.

In February 1946, the international relief organization UNRRA opened its own university in the Deutsches Museum. The university was open to all DPs. At its peak, up to 2,000 students from 30 nations were enrolled, most of them Ukrainians. Lectures were held mainly in English. About 150 professors taught subjects such as mechanical engineering, architecture, mathematics, economics and several natural science courses. The university only existed for one year until May 1947, as UNRRA then discontinued its work.

The initial reception center was open to all politically or racially persecuted persons and existed until February 1947. The international relief organisation UNRRA — the United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration — saw ist central task in the registration, care, and repatriation of persons who had been displaced or deported. This included concentration camp prisoners, forced labourers, and those recognised as Displaced Persons (DPs). UNRRA published the weekly newspaper D.P. Express for this circle of people, with articles in Yiddish, Russian, Polish, French, and German.
