The preparation of the staff of the corps took place from 16 March 1957 at Gneisenau-Kaserne, Koblenz; the corps was officially formed on 6 April 1957. Initially, the 2nd Panzergrenadier Division and 5th Panzer Division moved in 1957 from the II Corps to III Corps. The corps was integrated into defence planning from mid-1957, as part of NATO's Central Army Group, commanded by the commander of the U.S. Seventh Army. The area of operations was the FRG-DDR and German-Czechoslovak border in Hesse and Franconia. On 1 December 1958 the 7th Panzer Division was transferred from the III Corps to the I Corps. Among the first corps troops were Ordnance regiment 504 (formed May 16, 1957 in Diez, transferred January 1958 in Koblenz), and Corps Artillery Command 403 (based until 1 July 1957 at Munsterlager, from August 1957 in Koblenz). Under corps command were a rocket artillery battalion, a supply battalion, and a geophysical measurement train. Smilo Freiherr von Lüttwitz was the first commander of the corps, as a Lieutenant General. In 1994 the corps headquarters was disbanded and re-designated the headquarters of the German Army Forces Command. {{Location map+ | Cold War Germany|float = right |width = 400 |caption = PgD - Panzergrenadier Division, PzD - Panzer Division |places = |label=2nd PgD |position=right |background=white |mark=IFV right blue.png |marksize=30 |lat_deg= 51 | lat_min= 19 |lon_deg= 09 | lon_min= 30 }} {{Location map~ | Cold War Germany|label=5th PzD |position=right |background=white |mark=NATO tank right blue.png |marksize=45 |lat_deg= 50 | lat_min= 22.25 |lon_deg= 08 | lon_min= 01 }} {{Location map~ | Cold War Germany|label=12th PzD |position=left |background=white |mark=NATO tank right blue.png |marksize=45 |lat_deg= 49 | lat_min= 50 |lon_deg= 09 | lon_min= 53 }} {{Location map~ | Cold War Germany|label=Corps HQ |position=left |background=white |mark=Green pog.svg |marksize=8 |lat_deg= 50 | lat_min= 21.5 |lon_deg= 07 | lon_min= 36 }} Initially from 1959 the corps' troops under Heeresstruktur II consisted of :
