history

In the winter of 1841/42 the establishment of a trade association for the Duchy of Nassau was discussed. On February 8, 1843, the first general assembly took place in Wiesbaden. On May 9, 1844, the government of the Duchy of Nassau approved the association's statutes. One of the main tasks of the association was the establishment and operation of trade schools .
In 1850 a local trade association was founded in Oberursel. The driving force was Aloys Henninger , a real teacher who had been dismissed from school because of his democratic convictions. On April 14, 1850, the association decided to found a trade school in Oberursel. The school opened on Sunday, April 7th, 1850 in the restaurant "Zum Roman Kaiser" (today Oberurseler Brauhaus). Lessons were held in the elementary school on Hollerberg. 50 students were taught by one teacher.
The Oberursel club soon fell asleep again. The school was still operated by the Wiesbaden general association. In 1855 the Oberurseler Verein was re-established and the teaching was reorganized. Drawing was taught on Sundays, business essays, bookkeeping, arithmetic, and geometry in the evenings. The school was financed by the association, the community, school fees and half by the government.
In 1871 compulsory schooling for apprentices was introduced due to the Reichs-Gewerbeordnung.
In 1877 the citizens' school (today the middle school) was opened and the trade school was given its own rooms in the Hollerberg schoolhouse. After these were required by the municipal administration, the trade school 903 received some rooms in the citizen school.
In the second half of the 19th century, 19 trade schools and several agricultural schools were established in the area of today's Hochtaunuskreis. In 1908/09 the school was organized according to professional criteria for the first time. For example, classes for “ironworkers”, “building craftsmen” and “decorative trades” were set up. From 1913 there was also a business class.
On April 1, 1920, the city of Oberursel became a school sponsor. Otto Ludwig also became the first full-time teacher and head of the school.
The fact that schools were brought into line during the Nazi era had comparatively little effect. Aviation courses have been carried out as part of pre-military training since 1935. From 1936 Jewish apprentices were no longer admitted to exams.
In 1938 the school was expanded from three to five rooms. The reason was that she was now also responsible for the students from Weißkirchen, Stierstadt and Kalbach. Now 398 students attended the school. Furthermore, a housekeeping class was set up this year and the first female teacher, Miss Ziegler, was hired.
During the Second World War, teaching was impaired by the teachers' military service. In January 1945 a hospital was set up in the school. On March 30, 1945 the school was closed after the American invasion and reopened on January 7, 1946. With a decree of February 1, 1946 of the District President it was determined that industrial and commercial training should be concentrated in Bad Homburg and Oberursel. The entire western Obertaunus district thus became the school's catchment area. The number of pupils rose from 695 in 1948 to 1380 in 1955. Accordingly, a larger schoolhouse was required. The foundation stone was laid on August 14, 1954 at the current location on Oberhöchststädter Strasse. The new building was erected in three construction phases by 1960 for 2 million DM.
In 1956 a part-time vocational school was opened, and in 1957 a vocational school for home economics and nursing was opened. In 1966 the school was named "Municipal Vocational and Vocational School Obeursel".
1969 began a division of tasks between the vocational schools in Oberursel and Bad Homburg. Oberursel specialized in metal and commercial professions and Bad Homburg in electrical engineering and general commercial professions.
On July 1, 1970 the Obertaunuskreis became a school sponsor and on October 9, 1970 the school was named "Feldbergschule Oberursel". In 1973 an extension was moved into. Now there were 9 classrooms. In 1974 a sports hall and a vehicle training workshop were added.
In 1975, a voluntary basic vocational school year for metal technology was set up in a pilot project. In 1977 a technical college followed (one-year form) for “economy and administration”, in 1978 the same for “mechanical engineering”. Since there was again a lack of space, rooms in the middle primary school were used until the next extensions were made in 1990. First, however, in 1982 specialist rooms for IT, phonotype and pneumatics were put into operation.
The driving force of these years was the school director Friedrich Jahn, who headed the school from 1965 to 1990 and was awarded the Federal Cross of Merit for his achievements .
In 1997 the two-year technical college (Form A) was established in the field of "Economics and Administration" and in 2000 in "Mechanical Engineering".

Pilot project "independent vocational school"
Since 2011 the Feldbergschule has been participating in the pilot project “independent vocational school” in Hesse and has its own financial budget. Instead of frontal teaching, open forms of learning are practiced. The school company Projekt "Bagpackers" was founded in the vocational school for retail trade.
As part of business informatics in the first year of school, students can do an internship at the school company parallel to their lessons e. V. where they configure and repair PCs for customers. Typical tasks are the installation of operating systems or the analysis of computer systems and the subsequent elimination of problems.
