history
The school was founded in 1907, above the portal, a relief of the Austrian double eagle adorns the facade between the first and second floors . The school building is under monument protection ( list entry ).
At the beginning the school was a humanistic grammar school with Latin from the first grade and Greek from the third grade. The students were already separated during the Austro-Fascist period. The Catholic students were in the A-class, all the others in the B-class, mainly Protestants and Jews. Anti-Semitic hostility was the order of the day in the school. One of the most famous students was the later cabaret artist and composer Georg Kreisler , who attended the Kandlgasse secondary school in the 1930s. In April 1938, after Austria was annexed by the Nazi state , all Jewish students were excluded. Kreisler reported that when they left school on the day of exclusion, their Christian classmates formed a line and cursed, spat at and beat their Jewish classmates.
The school was founded as a boys' school , after the First World War in 1918 there was already co-education , and in 1926 the first girls were able to graduate. In 1938 girls had to leave school again, and it was not until the late 1970s that Kandlgasse became a mixed school again - in 1986 girls graduated again.
