The Ecumenical Domgymnasium Magdeburg is an independent Christian grammar school in Magdeburg . There is a special requirement for religion, three foreign languages and IT in grades 7 and 8.
history
There are numerous eminent graduates from this school. Martin Luther was a student at the Cathedral School Magdeburg, a predecessor of the Cathedral High School.
middle Ages
The history of the Domgymnasium goes back to the early Middle Ages. In 937 , one year after his coronation, Otto I founded the Moritzkloster in Magdeburg in honor of Saint Mauritius, to which a monastery school was also affiliated. In 968 the monastery school was converted into a cathedral school .
Modern times
The Magdeburg Cathedral School ceased teaching around 1530, as the Catholic Cathedral School was subject to competition from newly founded schools during the Reformation. It was re-founded in 1676 on the occasion of the centenary of the first Protestant service at Magdeburg Cathedral, initially as an elementary school with one class, which grew steadily in the following years and was expanded until it had four classes in 1680.
In 1810 the government of the Kingdom of Westphalia ordered the dissolution of the cathedral chapter and confiscated its property. It is thanks to the commitment of the then Rector Gottfried Funk that the school premises and teacher's apartments of the cathedral school were preserved. The building at Kreuzgangstrasse 5 also belonged to the teacher's apartments . Gottfried Funk's successor was Johann Andreas Matthias in 1814 . In the same year the cathedral school was taken over by the Prussian state.
From 1822 the cathedral school was first renamed the Domgymnasium , later the Royal Cathedral Gymnasium in Magdeburg . In 1841 the student body was divided into nine classes for the first time (sixth to upper prima) and a few years later physical education was also introduced. On October 17, 1881, the Domgymnasium first moved into the newly built school building in what was then Augustastraße 5 (today: Hegelstraße).
First half of the 20th century
In 1901 a reform high school with French as the first foreign language and later Latin lessons was added to the Domgymnasium and the school flag was inaugurated. After the end of the First World War and the monarchy , the name was changed again in 1919 to Staatliches Domgymnasium zu Magdeburg .
In 1928 the State Cathedral Gymnasium Magdeburg and the pedagogy were merged to form the monastery of Our Dear Women and were henceforth called United Cathedral and Monastery High School Magdeburg . The reform high school that had been connected up to that point was gradually dismantled over the same period.
When the National Socialists came to power in 1933, there were significant cuts in the German school system . In contrast to all other higher schools in Magdeburg, the cathedral and monastery high school was allowed to continue to use the title "high school" in its official name. Even if generalized statements about the community of the high number of pupils and / or the teaching staff are not possible and there is also hardly any evidence (still), both adaptation to the National Socialist regime and resistance must be assumed: the documents that have survived in the Magdeburg state archives it can be seen, for example, that in 1933 a teacher had taken down a picture of Adolf Hitler at school and that “the Marxist-communist attitude” of another teacher was in public discourse. At the same time, in 1937, the cathedral preacher was forbidden from holding a regular school sacrament ceremony - with reference to a separation of church and state and the status of a National Socialist state school - by the principal studies. The outbreak of war in 1939 finally led to an almost complete cessation of school teaching due to volunteer registrations in the student body, while the 6th to 8th grades functioned as air force helper classes . In 1945 the teachers' library with 25,000 volumes and the roof of the auditorium were destroyed in air raids.
After the end of the war, the Bismarck School classes were integrated into the Domgymnasium. However, only grades 9 to 12 were continued and Russian was introduced as a compulsory subject. From then on, the school was subject to the regulations of the Soviet military administration and in 1950, under political pressure, it was renamed the “Humboldt High School”.
Humboldt School
The school was renamed the Humboldt School in 1949 , later the Humboldt School EOS , and had moved twice by 1972. The school was one of nine schools in the GDR that offered ancient Greek lessons (there were many more schools with Latin lessons).
After the Peaceful Revolution in the GDR in 1989, the name was changed to Humboldt-Gymnasium . The Humboldt Gymnasium had been a European school since 1997 . In 2008 the Humboldtgmynasium was closed.
Ecumenical cathedral high school
The Domgymnasium was privately re-founded in 1991 as an Ecumenical Gymnasium by a parents' initiative with the participation of the Bremen pedagogue Erika Opelt-Stoevesandt and renamed the Ecumenical Domgymnasium (ÖDG) in 1993 . In 2000, the Domgymnasium was able to move back into the original building at Hegelstrasse 5. The Ecumenical Domgymnasium is a member of the working group of Christian-oriented schools in the state of Saxony-Anhalt . In 2006 the Ecumenical Domgymnasium was awarded the status of a European school by the Minister of Culture Jan-Hendrik Olbertz .
