The Staatliche Luitpold-Gymnasium Munich (also known as Luitpold-Gymnasium or LPG ) is a science, technology and language high school in the Munich district of Altstadt-Lehel . The originally purely boys' school, founded in 1891 as a secondary school by Luitpold von Bayern under the name Königliche Luitpold-Kreisrealschule , became an upper secondary school in 1908 and has also been open to girls as a grammar school since 1983.

location

The Luitpold-Gymnasium is next to the St. Anna-Gymnasium and the Wilhelmsgymnasium one of three high schools in the Munich district of Lehel . The school is located on Seeaustraße, near the English Garden .

history

Luitpold von Bayern , founder of the school

The Luitpold-Gymnasium was founded in 1891 by Prince Regent Luitpold of Bavaria in the Alexandrastraße in response to the demand for more scientific education as the Königliche Luitpold-Kreisrealschule . Therefore, in contrast to the humanistic tradition of many grammar schools in the 19th century, the Luitpold Realschule had a strong scientific orientation from the time it was founded. It was the second secondary school in Munich.

Eleven years after the school was founded, a pedagogical and didactic seminar for real teachers in the subjects of German, history and geography was established and further subjects were added by 1910. As early as 1908 it was extended to the secondary school , and exercises and experiments could also be carried out in the subjects of physics , chemistry and biology .

Until 1959, when a pioneer unit of the Bundeswehr moved into the area, the school garden of the secondary school in Ifflandstrasse, designed by the art teacher and seminar teacher Küchle, caused a stir.

In 1944 the building was badly damaged by incendiary bombs . School operations were outsourced to the Wilhelmsgymnasium until 1958. The new school building, which has housed school operations since September 1958, was the first post-war school building in Munich. In the same year, the school's internal newspaper Luitbold was printed for the first time. In 1965, the Oberrealschule was renamed Luitpold-Gymnasium . In 1976 the reformed upper level was introduced and the first attempt at school was made in the field of computer science . In 1983, co-education was introduced in the previous boys' grammar school.

Since 1994, the Luitpold-Gymnasium has been sending gift packages to a children's cancer hospital in Kiev every Christmas . These children mostly suffer their illnesses as a result of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster .

After the parents' initiative for homework supervision at Luitpold-Gymnasium was founded in 2002 by the parents of students who attended Luitpold-Gymnasium , it was given the status of a non-profit body on September 13, 2006 . About three years later, homework supervision as part of the open all-day school became a cooperation partner of the Bavarian government and has been officially recognized as a school event for this reason.

The school canteen was opened in 2007 .

On March 17, 2011, students contacted the International Space Station as part of a one-year school project run by teacher Joachim Hoffmüller and the German Amateur Radio Club and asked the astronaut Paolo Nespoli , who was in space, various questions.

The grammar school received media attention in June 2015 when graduates staged a strip show about their absences at school.

In addition to the State Luitpold Gymnasium Munich , Luitpold founded the Realgymnasium Munich as early as 1864 , which was merged with the Luitpold Gymnasium founded in 1887 in 1918 . Both high schools are often incorrectly referred to as the same thing. Since 1965, however, the original Luitpold grammar school has been called Albert Einstein grammar school . This grammar school was located in Müllerstrasse on the site of the now closed heating power station and was attended by Albert Einstein . The "Munich hostage murder", the often cited shooting of ten held hostages on April 30, 1919, possibly caused by the communist city ​​commandant and former sailor Rudolf Egelhofer , also took place in the building's schoolyard. It was destroyed by bombs in 1944.

classes

The lessons are held according to the curriculum of the Bavarian high school .

English is the first foreign language offered at Luitpold-Gymnasium ; Latin and French are the second foreign language in the sixth grade , with the option of Latin in the eighth grade additionally offering Italian or French as a third foreign language, or the focus can be placed on natural sciences . When choosing French as a subject, the student automatically selects the natural science branch.

In addition to the Christian religions Roman-Catholic and Evangelical , the Luitpold-Gymnasium offers not only the alternative subject ethics but also Jewish religious teaching .

The Luitpold-Gymnasium also offers numerous student exchange programs . For example, eighth grade pupils who have French as a second foreign language can travel to Voreppe for ten days and visit the Collège André Malraux there. Pupils with French as a third foreign language can instead take part in an exchange with the Lycée Albert Premier, a school in Monaco . Another exchange program for students who have French as a foreign language is being offered to Nice , with the Lycée Albert Calmette acting as a partner school . This exchange is planned for the ninth and tenth grades. Since 2012, those grade levels have also had the opportunity to take part in a three-week exchange to Australia , Brisbane , with Ferny Grove State High School being the partner school. There is also an exchange program with the 123rd Gymnasium in Kiev for selected students .
