The Freiherr-vom-Stein-Gymnasium in Kleve on the Lower Rhine is one of the two municipal high schools .

history

A forerunner was the Evangelical Reformed Latin School, founded in 1619 and strengthened by merging with the Emmerich School in 1643 , which fulfilled higher educational requirements for pupils as "Illustre Paedagogium Brandenburgicum Reformatum" and enjoyed the special protection of the Brandenburg governor Johann Moritz von Nassau-Siegen . It existed until the French era after 1803, when lessons were discontinued and the valuable library was moved to Hamm .

The higher school was re-established in April 1817 as a humanistic grammar school and an all-boys school under the name of the Königliches Gymnasium zu Cleve in the building of the former sister house on Mount Sion. With the new building of the school on Römerstrasse in 1902, the development of part of the Klever Oberstadt began . Originally designed for 200 students, it was already overloaded with 400 students 25 years later. Since 1919 the Prussian school was called Staatliches Gymnasium Cleve , in 1938 Hindenburg-Oberschule - Staatliche Oberschule for boys . In 1933 the book burning took place in the schoolyard in Kleve. During the air raid on October 7, 1944, the school building was destroyed to the ground. The school operation then continued in parts in the vocational school building. After the Second World War in 1945, the school was renamed again and was given its original name, Staatliches Gymnasium Cleve, from 1919.

At the beginning of the 1950s, the school, which was now sponsored by the State of North Rhine-Westphalia, was rebuilt and expanded. In the 1970s, the buildings were further expanded and the reformed upper level was converted , which was at the expense of the ancient language tradition. The grammar school has had its current name since 1974, and girls have been accepted as pupils since 1975. Today the city of Kleve is the school authority.

Today's school picture

The Freiherr-vom-Stein-Gymnasium has more than 750 pupils from Kleve and the neighboring communities in a three to four-class lower secondary level and the upper level. In the upper level it cooperates with the Konrad-Adenauer-Gymnasium in order to enable a broader range of courses.
