history
The history of the school began in 1723 with the establishment of a foundation for the establishment of a Latin school by Cardinal Hugo Damian von Schönborn . His successor as Prince-Bishop of Speyer , Franz Christoph von Hutten , brought the Jesuits to Bruchsal in 1753 and commissioned them to teach in the old castle, which has not been preserved. The grammar school was inaugurated in 1757. However, since little is known about the time in between and lessons had already started, today 1755 is officially the year the school was founded.
In 1773 the grammar school was merged with the seminary and moved to the south wing of its building on Wilderichstrasse, which is now used by the tax office. In 1797 the two institutions were separated again and after the dissolution of the Augustinian Jesuit order called up as a teacher at the Catholic grammar school . School fees were introduced in 1828.
In 1845 the school was relocated to the north wing of the former seminar building, which is located directly at Schönborn Castle and today serves as the parish hall of the court church. In 1870 the Catholic status was abolished and denominational parity between the teachers was ensured. Abitur exams were held here for the first time in 1880 . In 1938 the school was named after its location at the Schloss-Gymnasium .
In 1945 the building was completely destroyed in an air raid. When classes were resumed in 1946, they first took place in the premises of the private high school in St. Paulusheim , before being relocated to the rebuilt west wing of the Justus Knecht high school in 1950 . In 1951, the school finally moved to its current location, in the rebuilt and extended so-called reserve building , which Prince-Bishop von Hutten originally built in the city garden in 1750 as a water reservoir with a summer residence. In 1954, the renaming of the school took place after its founder in Schönborn-Gymnasium after in 1953, a development association Friends of the Schönborn-Gymnasium was founded.
At the beginning of the 1960s, there was no longer enough space in Schönborn. Initially, an extension was considered, then another relocation of the school to a new building in Wilderichstrasse was considered. However, since the building site available there turned out to be not big enough for the grammar school, it was finally decided to build an elementary school there ( elementary and secondary school ) in order to relieve the Freiherr-vom-Stein school, which is the Reserve building complex with which Schönborn shared. In 1967, the Johann-Peter-Hebel -Schule began operating and the Schönborn-Gymnasium (which at that time also set up a new language train) was able to use the spatial capacities of the Freiherr-vom-Stein-Schule until it was finally in 1976 was completely dissolved and that Schönborn could use the entire facility alone. In 1979, an extension was inaugurated for music, art and science classes.
School today
Since 1992, a mathematical- natural science course has been offered as an alternative to the humanistic course.
In 2001/2002 the Schönborn-Gymnasium was the pilot school of a powerline project of the Baden-Württemberg City Council , which is why, thanks to the support of a private sponsor, in addition to the two computer rooms, all 40 classrooms now have Internet access that can be used by several PCs installed on trolleys.
In 2008/2009 a cafeteria with two science rooms was opened, which is located behind the former entrance to the sports hall.
In 2014, SBG-TV was introduced to the school's "television station". He regularly produces videos about the school and publishes them on its YouTube channel.
