The Carolinum grammar school is one of the largest grammar schools in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania with around 1,100 students and around 90 teachers . Today's school buildings are located in Neustrelitz directly on Lake Glambeck .
history
The foundation stone for the grammar school was laid in 1795 when the reigning Duke Charles II complied with the request of the Neustrelitz citizens and built a better school. On April 12, 1795 he signed a deed of foundation for the formation of a high school in which 18 students were initially taught by two teachers. This means that the Neustrelitzer Gymnasium is, in terms of age, a rather young institution among the secondary schools in today's state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, many of which were (re) founded in the 16th century and sometimes go back to medieval roots.
From 1803 to 1806, a school building was built in the former churchyard in Glambecker Strasse (the city's oldest cemetery) based on plans by Friedrich Wilhelm Dunckelberg . The name Gymnasium Carolinum was only given to the school on October 16, 1811 as an honorary name. The former school building (Altes Carolinum) at Glambecker Straße 10 now houses the Kon.centus Neustrelitz music school.
On the initiative of the Minister of Education and Finance, Roderich Hustaedt , a former Carolinian, the government and the state parliament of the Free State of Mecklenburg-Strelitz decided in 1922 to build a new school building on Lake Glambeck . A year later, construction began according to the plans of the architect Paul Schondorf . In 1925 the completed building could be occupied by the secondary school with 300 students and the grammar school with 310 students. The new name was now: Carolinum, Gymnasium and Realgymnasium .
The Wehrmacht seized this building on August 26, 1939 and set up a hospital there. Shortly after the Second World War, it was taken over by the Soviet Army as the "Officers' House" and hospital. Since then, classes have taken place in various buildings in the city center.
After the founding of the GDR , which resulted in the renaming of streets and facilities, the name Max Planck Oberschule was decided in 1949 . This prevailed against the proposal of Clara Zetkin . But on March 8, 1951, the school was named Clara Zetkin Oberschule , later EOS Clara Zetkin . Until the political change in the GDR, this was a special school for languages and computer science and, in addition to the Abitur, always had two preparatory classes in which the students from the 9th grade were mainly prepared for the foreign language test in Russian, English and French. Lessons took place in the Marienpalais not far from the castle church, which is now privately owned again and serves as a residential building. The foreign students were housed in a boarding school, which also no longer exists today, not far from the zoo (entrance to today's pet park).
On October 17, 1991, the grammar school got its original name back.
In 1993 the last Russian troops withdrew from Neustrelitz and thus cleared the building on Lake Glambeck. The renovation began a year later and in 1997 around 1,000 students moved into the new old grammar school.
The merger with the Schliemann-Gymnasium in Glambecker Straße led to the first increase in the number of the Gymnasium.
Due to the increasing number of pupils, the Carolinum grammar school was expanded in 2013 to include house 2, which also houses the school canteen.
