The Christian-Doppler-Gymnasium and Realgymnasium , named after the physicist Christian Doppler , who was born in the Austrian city of Salzburg in 1803 , is a general higher education in the Salzburg district of Lehen , located on the Salzach .
history
The school is located in the old kuk Lehen infantry barracks built by city architect Jakob Ceconi between 1897 and 1899 , and was designed for a full battalion . It is similar to the Hellbrunn Landwehr barracks (built in 1897/98, today a retirement home). From 1899 the infantry regiment "Archduke Rainer" No. 59 was stationed . After the First World War it was briefly an Invalidenheim, from 1920 location of the Federal Army ( Salzburg Alpine Hunter Battalion No. 3 , the successor to the "Rainer"). In 1944 the building was badly damaged by a bombing raid. In 1945 it was used as a refugee reception camp for a short time, then offices of the United States Forces Austria (USFA) and refugee aid organizations such as the International Refugee Organization (IRO), United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration (UNRRA), the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) housed.
The school was built in the 1955/56 school year, shortly after the US occupation forces left Salzburg. This location was originally intended to serve only as a temporary measure for 24 classes of the overcrowded secondary school at Hanuschplatz in the center of the city. The number of students increased rapidly, however, so that the temporary solution became a fixed facility.
The grammar school was renamed several times according to the branches of education offered and initially only referred to as Realgymnasium , later as Bundesgymnasium II .
In 1974 the grammar school was divided and a federal grammar school III set up as a modern language and music grammar school . This led a musical school experimental branch, was housed in the main building and a rented auxiliary building, and moved as the Musisches Gymnasium Salzburg in 1988 to the Elisabeth suburb on the other bank of the Salzach.
The evening high school in Salzburg has also been housed here since 1957 .
Today the educational institution has 29 classes with around 750 students and 80 teachers.

Infrastructure
The school has a courtyard with soccer fields, a beach volleyball court and a biotope. There is also a library and video library with over 25,000 media, two gyms, a fitness room and various halls for specialist teaching (physics, chemistry, music, etc.), but also for photography, media work and IT. The school buffet has been run by a catering company since the 2010/11 school year.
For the 2007/2008 school year, four container classes were set up due to a lack of space in the courtyard. At the same time, the building opposite the school in Christian-Doppler-Straße was adapted, where almost all first and second grades are now housed. In the second half of the 2010s, the old school building was renovated. In addition, the sports hall building on Ignaz-Harrer-Straße was demolished and replaced by a new building.
- Further use of the building
The school is the location of the control center for the “AustroMars” mission, a project of the Austrian Space Forum led by Ludwig Bermoser.
The school building also houses the classes for the evening grammar school in Salzburg , which is run by the Salzburg Adult Education Center.
