Want to find where my Mum and Dad married in 1947, in Bad Oudenhousen. Dad was in the Black Watch and Mum was in the A.T.S. in War Graves. (I think the Church was burned down just before their Wedding!! Dad went to Korea and they moved to Berlin.
My Mum is 87yrs. and would like to visit - any info. on apartments for rent, etc., in September.

Welcome Alan
If you Google "Kirche Am Kurpark, 32545 Bad Oeynhausen" will show the churches the HQ of BAOR was in the Kurpark and the closest church is St Peter and Paul and could have been used by the military...best of luck
Your Dad's regiment
1st Battalion Black Watch (Royal Highlanders) – Glamorgan Barracks Duisburg from June 1946 when the 5th Battalion merged with the 1st Battalion until April 1950
