The Erasmus-Grasser-Gymnasium ( EGG ) is a scientific-technological and European high school in the Munich district of Sendling-Westpark . It was originally founded in 1833 by King Ludwig I as the Royal Agriculture and Trade School of the Isar District . The high school is named today after the sculptor, wood carver and master craftsman Erasmus Grasser .

history

The school, founded in 1833 as the Königliche Landwirthschafts- und Gewerbeschule des Isarkkreises , was one of the oldest realistic teaching institutions in Bavaria and was part of the “ Polytechnikum ” established in the women's monastery in Munich . Like all schools of its kind, the institution was separated from the agricultural department in 1864 and, according to King Ludwig II's "Most High Royal Decree of May 14", was transformed into the Royal District Trade School of the Isar District. On April 29, 1877 it became the six-class district secondary school of the Isarkkreis . In 1891, the school was given the first name of the late kings Ludwig I and Ludwig II from Prince Regent Luitpold and was initially called the Ludwig Realschule . Under the Nazi regime , the Ludwigs Realschule was transformed into a high school for boys on Damenstiftstraße in 1938 and after the destruction of the Damenstift in World War II it was moved to the Wittelsbacher Gymnasium in 1946 . In 1948 the school became the Ludwigs-Oberrealschule and got today's Ignaz-Taschner-Gymnasium in Dachau as a branch. In 1958, together with the Ludwigsgymnasium, they moved into today's school complex on Fürstenrieder Straße (in the Neufriedenheim sub-community ), which was designed by the architects Fred Angerer and Adolf Schnierle, as well as the extension with a library, auditorium, canteen, customizable sports halls and tower observatory that was added in 1978 .

The school building is in need of renovation; the old building from 1958 and the extension from 1978 have never been completely renovated (as of 2015).

As a mathematical and natural science educational institution, among other things, through a “Pedagogical seminar for German studies, mathematics / physics, art education, gymnastics philology m Chemistry, Biology or English ”, the Ludwigs-Oberrealschule became Ludwigsgymnasium II in 1965 because of the already existing high school of the same name . Although the name was accepted because of the eponymous namesake, the numbering as “classification” or “gradation” was rejected by the school management and teaching staff, which made the new name finding inevitable. In the search for a namesake, the personalities Nikolaus Kopernikus , Johannes Kepler , Joseph von Fraunhofer , Werner von Siemens and Justus von Liebig , who are brilliantly recognized by the natural sciences, were up for discussion, whereby the first choice fell on the name Johannes-Kepler-Gymnasium , but for them an application had already been submitted to the Ministry of Culture. Therefore, the artists Hans Pfitzner and Erasmus Grasser were discussed in the next stage , with the choice ultimately falling on today's namesake.

location

The Erasmus-Grasser-Gymnasium, which is located today together with the Ludwigsgymnasium in a complex to the west of the Westpark , is easy to reach by public transport. In addition to the so-called old building (A building) and extension building (E building), there has also been a container building called a pavilion since 2017, which is shared with the Ludwigsgymnasium.

Seminary school

Trainee teachers are trained at the Erasmus-Grasser-Gymnasium . There are study seminars for mathematics, physics, computer science, chemistry, biology, German, English, geography, sports and art. Since trainee lawyers only stay for a limited time, the change among teachers is above average.

Partnerships

There are partnerships with the neighboring Ludwigsgymnasium and the Technical University of Munich as well as a cooperation with the Siemens Foundation .

Others

The movement arts group performed, among other things, in 2003 with its program at the World Gymnaestrada in Lisbon . The hockey team is a participant in the Bavarian championship of school hockey teams and the chess team reached the semifinals of the 3rd Internet School Chess Cup 2005/2006.

The connected day care center for study seminars Albertinum is available for afternoon care .
