The Gutenberg School is a grammar school in the Wiesbaden district southeast, which was founded in 1845 as a secondary school and has had its current name since 1955. The school has around 1,340 students and around 100 teachers.

history

By ducal edict of June 22, 1844, it was decreed to build a high school as a state institution in Wiesbaden, in connection with the municipal preparatory and middle secondary school. The aim was "to provide a general scientific education for those who dedicate themselves to a technical-practical occupation and want to move on to it immediately or continue their studies at a technical school." The lessons, which were given in three classes, included religion, mathematics and natural sciences (physics , Chemistry and natural history), geography and history, modern languages ​​(German, French and English), the Latin language, drawing and singing. The headmaster and the teachers were given the same rank and salary as their colleagues in the upper classes of the “learned grammar schools”.

The institution was opened on April 10, 1845. The first director was a school councilor who had directed the newly built secondary school in Gotha since 1836. The municipal secondary school, which was only founded in 1840, retained the four lower grades (IV to VII), while the fifth was assigned to the secondary school, which immediately grew up around the sixth and in the next school year around the seventh grade, thus encompassing classes I to III. Until Easter 1857, the Realschule and -gymnasium were under the same headmaster and were viewed as a whole "in relation to teaching". The number of students fluctuated greatly in the first twelve years.

In 1868 the Prima, in 1873 also the Seconda and in 1874 the Tertia were expanded to a two-year course (B and A), during which no transfer decision was apparently made. From 1877 onwards, they were no longer two-year-olds, but were subdivided with the additions "Unter" and "Ober". The Quarta had already been added in 1874, and Quinta and Sexta in 1875, which resulted in nine years.

Of the 517 high school graduates who had passed their school-leaving exams by 1895 , they turned to the subjects of construction and engineering 121, advanced teaching 83, chemistry 59, military subject 54, forestry 48, medicine 34 and other subjects 118. The choice of subjects was still limited at that time, because the completion of a Realgymnasium , apart from other authorizations, only awarded a subject-specific higher education entrance qualification until the Prussian school reform of 1900 .

The secondary school was initially housed together with the municipal secondary school in the school building on Markt in Wiesbaden, temporarily on Schützenhofstrasse, and later on the upper floor of the state mint on Luisenplatz in the immediate vicinity of the secondary school.

When Nassau was no longer independent from the state after 1866, the suffix “Herzoglich Nassauisches” was replaced by “Royal” and in 1918 by “State”.

From 1931 the Realgymnasium was next to the Gymnasium part of an institution with the designation "Staatliches Gymnasium und Realgymnasium", sometimes circumscribed with the phrase that the director of the Realgymnasium had also been given the management of the Gymnasium. On June 12, 1933, the school moved into the north and south wings of today's school building on Mosbacher Strasse. Probably from 1937 until the end of the war the name was "State Gymnasium and Oberschule". At the end of 1951 at the earliest, the school was named Diltheyschule after Wilhelm Dilthey , a former student of the original grammar school, who had rejected the equality of Realgymnasien and Oberrealschulen with humanistic grammar schools .

In 1955 the schools were separated again, with the grammar school keeping the new name but being housed elsewhere. The remaining original secondary school has since been called the Gutenberg School, under which an elementary school existed for a short time until 1914 in the same building with Gutenbergplatz in front of the north wing. The school name was initially given the addition of "Gymnasium for boys", although girls have already been accepted into classes that learned French as their first foreign language. Since 1968 the addition has only been "Gymnasium".

Concept and memberships

The Gutenberg School has a school band, an orchestra and a theater group. She is a member of the MINT-EC , a school network for the promotion of mathematics and science subjects. In addition to the German Abitur , she also offers the French Baccalauréat in the upper school level . Since 2017, the Gutenberg School has been allowed to call itself School without Racism - School with Courage .

school-building

According to initial plans in 1899, the school building was built between 1901 and 1905 for a double elementary school (divided into girls 'and boys' schools) named Gutenberg School after Johannes Gutenberg . The northern part of the building was initially completed (inauguration on April 21, 1903 by Rabbi Dr. Silberstein), due to the increasing number of students, the southern part for the girls was quickly added. The school in the south of the city, like the planned new poet's quarter , had become necessary due to the population development and should be built before the residential development. The architect was city architect Felix Genzmer , who also built the Blücher and Leibniz schools; he was a well-known architect of late historicism . For ten years the building was used as a primary school, then as a barracks , later as a military hospital and, after the First World War, by the occupying powers. Then the Prussian state bought it from the city of Wiesbaden in exchange for the "Cavalierhaus" on the market.
