In 1955, what was then the Progymnasium started with an 11th grade and was expanded to a full institution by a resolution in the same year.

In May 1960 a new building was put into operation at the current location in the city park, and in this context the school was also named Albert-Schweitzer-Gymnasium . In 1972 a new building was added to the school building on the Sulm . In the 1979/1980 school year the number of pupils rose to 1,639.
