Minneriya Garrison

The Minneriya Garrison is a common name used for collection of military bases of the Sri Lanka Army located in and around the Minneriya in the North Central Province. It is home to the several training centers of the army, including the Infantry Training Centre and the School of Artillery of the Sri Lanka Artillery.

The garrison was established in the 1980s and expanded with the rapid growth of the army in the 1980s and 1990s with escalation of the Sri Lankan Civil War.
