architecture
The European school was built by the Fabigan & Feichtinger company from 1957 to 1959 according to the plans of the architects Fritz Fanta and Adolf Kammermayer. The multi-part building consists of a five-storey class wing, a residential wing and a gymnastics and gymnastics room. It forms an ensemble with the neighboring Linz Higher Regional Court and is an example of architecture from the late 1950s. The flat roof, slightly bent in the middle, gives the cube a lightness.
architectural art
The European monument in front of the school is a three-part stone block made of South Tyrolean porphyry with a relief-like representation of the three historical epochs of Europe (antiquity - middle ages - present) and was created in 1961 by the sculptor Alois Dorn . The reliefs show Europe on the bull and with a man and a woman unity and freedom .
