The Collegium Ludgerianum was an episcopal convict in Münster . The name Ludgerianum is still used today for the former Konvikts building on Domplatz .

Konvikt

The Collegium Ludgerianum was intended for boys from the diocese of Münster who felt called to be priests (or who were intended to do so). Their performance had to be in the upper third of the class average. Entry was possible from high school (9th grade). The grammar school lessons up to the Abitur took place at the grammar school Paulinum . It was supplemented by spiritual and ascetic training and community life in the Konvikt.

history

founding

The Ludgerianum was founded at Easter 1849 by Bishop Johann Georg Müller . It received the name of St. Liudger , the first bishop of Munster. On Cathedral Square, south next to the bishop's palace, was Bishop Hermann Jakob Dingelstad the 1901-1904 designed by the architect Franz Münster Wucherpfennig historicist Konviktsgebäude with the town hall modeled gable built.

New building on the Ring

The Ludgerianum later moved into a new building at Kardinal-von-Galen-Ring 45. After its destruction in the Second World War , it was rebuilt in a simplified manner and reopened in 1952 as a Konvikt. Between 1960 and 1964, the Overberg College was also housed there. From 1969 the Collegium shared the building with the newly founded Peace School , an episcopal comprehensive and all-day school . The Collegium Ludgerianum was dissolved in 1971. Today the Caritas Association resides there in the diocese of Münster .

The building on Domplatz after the move

After the Konviktes moved, the original building housed the diocese's archives until the Second World War. Badly damaged in the war, the building was rebuilt in a simplified manner by 1950. From 1950 to 1960, the newly created Catholic Academy Franz-Wärme-Haus was also housed there before it moved to the new building on Lake Aasee . To finance the new building, the original building on Domplatz was sold and has since been used as a philosophical seminar at the Westphalian Wilhelms University .
