Explosives detection dogs Kassel documenta, Industry & ICE Hub
Kassel is the city of documenta, home to major industrial companies, and one of Germany's most important ICE railway hubs. This combination places special demands on security – from safeguarding international art exhibitions to protecting critical transport and industrial infrastructure. MK9S offers LBA-certified K9 teams for all these areas.
Areas of operation in Kassel
Kassel connects the international art world, strong industry, and one of Germany's most important railway hubs – each area with its own security requirements.
Every five years, the documenta makes Kassel the center of the international art world – with exhibitions at dozens of locations throughout the city, hundreds of thousands of visitors, and worldwide media attention. Even in years without the documenta, significant events take place at the Fridericianum, the Kongress Palais, and in public spaces. We discreetly and thoroughly secure exhibition spaces, open areas, and event locations.
Kassel is home to major industrial companies – including the VW transmission plant, Krauss-Maffei Wegmann (defense industry), and numerous suppliers. As a logistics hub in the center of Germany, important goods flows converge here. We proactively secure production sites, warehouses, and supply chains – coordinated with your plant security, without operational interruptions.
Kassel-Wilhelmshöhe station is one of Germany's busiest ICE hubs. In addition, there are shopping centers, pedestrian zones, and public squares that present special security requirements for large events. We support authorities and private security services in preventive security – quickly, discreetly, and in a coordinated manner.
