history
The Kirchlinde grammar school on Hangeneystraße was built in 1969 on the site of the Hangeney elementary school. A temporary pavilion solution served as the school building. In 1975 the company moved to the new Kirchlinde school center. The name was changed to Bert-Brecht-Gymnasium in 1979. It was the first school in Germany to bear this name. In 1999, an extension with science rooms on the upper floor and 10 classrooms on the ground floor was inaugurated. A PCB remediation began in autumn 2005, during which the BBG had to move into containers. It was only in February 2007 that it was possible to move back into the completely renovated building in the school center, where new specialist rooms and a fully networked school now enable modern teaching. After protests by the students since the end of 2007 and the subsequent closure and demolition of the 30-year-old pavilion in March 2009, around 10 rooms were missing for the upper school classes. Initially, four containers on one of the three sports fields and three rooms in the neighboring secondary school served as replacements.
The grammar school and the neighboring Droste-Hülshoff-Realschule have been using the building of the former secondary school since 2015 , so that there are enough rooms for lessons and a second auditorium. This part of the building is called the Upper School Center (OSZ), as this is where upper school lessons take place.
