history
The French school, consisting of a kindergarten (École Maternelle) and a primary school (École Élémentaire), was founded in 1950 for members of the French embassy and the French armed forces on Friedrich-Ebert Strasse in Bonn-Bad Godesberg. The Collège was added in 1961 and the French grammar school (Lycée) in 1984. The convention with the AEFE began in 1990. In that year the grammar school was renamed “Lycée de Gaulle-Adenauer”, after Charles de Gaulle and Konrad Adenauer .
After the French embassy left in 1999, the grammar school in Langwartweg was closed and the name of the school was changed to École de Gaulle - Adenauer (kindergarten and elementary school).
In 2008 the school temporarily moved to Domhofstrasse, and in 2011 it returned to the renovated and expanded premises on Meckenheimer Strasse (in use since 1976). The Mehlem synagogue used to be located on part of the school premises .
