The Bundesgymnasium and Bundesrealgymnasium Mattersburg is located at Hochstrasse 1 and occupies a prominent position in the cityscape. The school building, erected from 1934 to 1936, is a late work by the architect Alfred Keller , who was influenced by the architecture of the homeland security . It was originally built as a Roman Catholic teacher training college and is the result of a competition in which Alfred Keller won first prize. The adjacent seminar building was built from 1953 to 1954 according to plans by Robert Kramreiter .

history
The state school for boys in Mattersburg, which was founded shortly before the start of World War I , was converted into a middle school in 1924: the Burgenland German Middle School , which was under the administration of the new federal state of Burgenland. The school type of the German Middle School ceased to exist throughout Austria in 1928. The Mattersburg Middle School was now called Burgenland Lower Realgymnasium until 1938 . In the absence of a larger school building, it has not yet been possible to fully operate as a secondary school.
After the annexation of Austria , the school authorities confiscated the building of the Roman Catholic teacher training institute in Mattersburg. The grammar school, which now has eight grades, was able to use the building for a short time under the name Staatliche Oberschule für Jungs , but was already housed in various makeshift quarters such as an inn from 1942 when the former teacher training institute was used as a war hospital. At the end of the Second World War , the school ceased operations.
In 1945 the school was reopened as a Staatsrealgymnasium (with a gymnasium branch) , which was converted into a Bundesrealgymnasium (with a gymnasium branch) in 1946 and finally in 1948 into a Bundesrealgymnasium and Bundesgymnasium . The building of the former teacher training institute, which became the property of the Roman Catholic Church again, has now been rented. The Roman Catholic boys' seminar , founded in Eisenstadt in 1933 , had also been housed there since 1945/1946, but was given its own seminar building right next to the school in 1953/1954. In 1964 the federal high school and the federal high school became a federal high school and the federal high school . The boys' seminar was closed in 1998. From 1999 to 2002 the school building was rebuilt and renovated.
