The command traces its history to Headquarters, Allied Forces Central Europe (AFCENT), which was activated in August 1953 in Fontainebleau, outside Paris, France.{{cite web|url=http://www.usarmygermany.com/Sont.htm?http&&&www.usarmygermany.com/Units/HqUSAREUR/USAREUR_AFCENT.htm|title=Allied Forces Central Europe|access-date=21 June 2014}}

Ensuring interoperability among land forces of the different NATO Member States has always been a challenge,{{cite web|url=https://www.nato.int/docu/review/articles/2015/06/16/enhancing-interoperability-the-foundation-for-effective-nato-operations/index.html|title=Enhancing interoperability: the foundation for effective NATO operations|first=James|last=Derleth|date=16 June 2015|publisher=NATO Review|access-date=23 June 2022}} which is why a variety of NATO standardization activities, such as the NATO Standardization Office, have been underway since the 1950s.{{cite book |title=A Dictionary of Aviation |first=David W. |last=Wragg |isbn=9780850451634 |edition=first |publisher=Osprey |year=1973 |page=11}}

After General Dwight D. Eisenhower was appointed as Supreme Allied Commander Europe (SACEUR) in 1950, he found that devising command arrangements in the Central Region, which contained the bulk of NATO's forces, was to be complicated.Dr Gregory Pedlow, Evolution of NATO's Command Structure General Eisenhower considered naming an overall Commander-in-Chief (CINC) for the Central Region but soon realized it would be difficult to find an arrangement that would satisfy all three major powers with forces in the Centre - the United States, United Kingdom and France - because their views on the proper relationship of air and ground power differed significantly. Moreover, he wanted to control the most important region, Central Region, himself.{{cite web|url=https://www.nato.int/nato_static_fl2014/assets/pdf/pdf_2012_12/20170329_121207-Forging_the_weapon.pdf|page=15|title=Forging the Weapon: The origins of SHAPE|date=7 December 2012|publisher=NATO|access-date=8 March 2022}}

Drawing upon his Second World War experience, Eisenhower decided to retain overall control himself and did not appoint a CINC for the Central Region. Instead there would be three separate commanders-in-chief (for Allied Air Forces Central Europe, Allied Land Forces Central Europe and Flag Officer Central Europe (FLAGCENT)), all reporting directly to SACEUR. Vice Admiral Robert Jaujard of the French Navy was appointed as Flag Officer Central Europe, and served from 2 April 51 until 20 August 1953.{{citation | last = North Atlantic Treaty Organization | title = Senior officials in the NATO military structure, from 1949 to 2001 | url = http://www.nato.int/cv/ace-k-p.pdf }} Responsible for Rhine Flotillas.

One of the command's exercises in the 1950s was Operation Counter Punch. Counter Punch was a September 1957 AFCENT air-ground military exercise that also tested NATO's integrated air-defense system in its central European front. The exercise involved the national air-defense systems of Britain, France, Belgium and the Netherlands, with Général d'Armée Jean-Étienne Valluy, French Army, NATO's Commander-in-Chief Allied Forces Central Europe (CINCENT), in overall command.{{cite magazine |url=http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,891351,00.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110628231338/http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,891351,00.html |url-status=dead |archive-date=June 28, 2011 |title=Emergency Call |access-date=3 October 2008 |magazine=Time |date=30 September 1957}} Operation Counter Punch revealed deficiencies in the Integrated NATO Air Defense System as well as air force responsiveness to theoretical Soviet and Warsaw Pact ground advances.{{cite book |title= Creating Deterrence for Limited War: The U.S. Army and the Defense of West Germany, 1953–1982 |last= Trauschweizer |first= Igor |year= 2006 |publisher=University of Maryland |location= College Park, Maryland |page= 179 |url= http://drum.lib.umd.edu/bitstream/1903/3390/1/umi-umd-3202.pdf |access-date=16 June 2011}}

After July 1962 and the establishment of Commander Allied Forces Baltic Approaches (COMBALTAP), German naval forces were shifted into that command. Thereafter there was no longer any need for the small headquarters of Allied Naval Forces Central Europe and its two subordinate commands, and they were disestablished in 1962, leaving naval liaison provided by a US naval officer.

AFCENT remained in France under French command until 1967, when France removed itself from the military command structure. The headquarters was moved to Brunssum in 1967 and activated under German command.

During the Cold War, AFCENT commanded the following units:

The III Corps (US) was allocated as NORTHAG reserve. On activation, it would have deployed to Europe from bases in the United States. A forward element, 3rd Brigade, US 2nd Armored Division, was located at Garlstedt, Germany.{{cite book |author1=David Isby |title=Armies of NATO's Central Front |author2=Charles Kamps |date=1985 |publisher=Jane's Publishing Company |isbn=0-7106-0341-X |pages=373, 455}}; {{cite book |author=U.S. Army Europe |url=http://www.history.hqusareur.army.mil/Strengthening%20NATO.pdf |title=Strengthening NATO: Stationing of the 2nd Armored Division (Forward) in Northern Germany |date=22 May 1980 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090327070643/http://www.history.hqusareur.army.mil/Strengthening%20NATO.pdf |archive-date=2009-03-27 |url-status=dead}} The U.S. III Corps also maintained a forward headquarters at Tapijn Kazerne, Maastricht, Netherlands.Simon Duke, U.S. Military Forces and Installations in Europe, SIPRI/Oxford University Press, 1989, p. 20 - 30 ish.

The commander of US Army Europe, Gen. William W. Crouch, assumed an additional role as commander of NATO LANDCENT on 15 February 1996. He was the first American to command LANDCENT since its 1993 activation. Originally, the LANDCENT command was to be rotated between German and Dutch generals. The dual command of United States Army Europe (USAREUR) and LANDCENT allowed the continued integration of US Army Europe into NATO's post-Cold War structure. All NATO corps, except for the :de:IV. Korps (Bundeswehr), were then multinational. In the mid-late 1990s there were four multinational main defence corps in NATO's Central Region: one Danish-German (LANDJUT), one Dutch-German (I GE/NL Corps) and two German-United States (II GE/US and V US/GE). In addition, an agreement was made which set out the arrangements under which the European Corps, consisting of units from Belgium, France, Germany, Luxembourg and Spain, would be made available to NATO in times of crisis.{{cite web |date=25 February 2003 |title=Eurokorps begrüßt Österreich und Finnland |url=http://www.bmlv.gv.at/cms/artikel.php?ID=358 |access-date=25 February 2014 |publisher=Austrian Armed Forces}}

2. Plan, prepare and direct operations of land forces under NATO command.
3. Plan, coordinate and conduct the land and air subcampaign jointly with NATO's Allied Air Command, Central.

5. Support the flanks of the area of responsibilities.

The departure from the Cold War era brought the implementation of a new NATO Integrated Military Structure and LandCENT was formally designated Joint Headquarters Centre (JHQ CENT) in a ceremony held on March 9, 2000.Allied Land Component Headquarters Heidelberg, [http://www.nato.int/lahd/issues/history_of_the_headquarters.htm History of the Headquarters], updated September 15, 2004

In 2000, the deactivation of Headquarters, Allied Forces Northern Europe (AFNORTH) in Kolsås, Norway led to the redesignation of AFCENT as Regional Headquarters, Allied Forces Northern Europe (RHQ AFNORTH). The headquarters operated as RHQ AFNORTH until 2004, when it was renamed Allied Joint Force Command Brunssum (JFC-B) to add flexibility to the military command structure by removing regional restrictions.{{cite web|url=http://www.jfcbs.nato.int/jfcbrunssum-community/page150033234.aspx |title=What is JFC Brunssum? |publisher=NATO |access-date=21 June 2014 |url-status = dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140812213439/http://www.jfcbs.nato.int/jfcbrunssum-community/page150033234.aspx |archive-date=12 August 2014 }}
