The Carolinum Bernburg grammar school is a grammar school in Bernburg (Saale) in Saxony-Anhalt .

location

The school building and the administrative headquarters of the grammar school is the listed Carolinum at Schlossgartenstrasse 14 in Bernburg's mountain town. It is located on a plateau above the right bank of the Saale . Immediately next to it are Bernburg Castle with its castle terrace, bear kennel and Eulenspiegel Tower as well as the Carl-Maria-von-Weber-Theater and the Bernburg Town Hall with the Bernburg flower clock .

At the beginning of the 2003/2004 school year, the previous Carolinum grammar school as well as the Friederiken grammar school and the Hermann Hellriegel grammar school were merged to form the new Carolinum Bernburg grammar school .

Historical roots to the Carolinum grammar school

The Carolinum Bernburg grammar school has three historical roots in the form of higher education institutions: the humanistically oriented grammar school (white pupil hats), the Realgymnasium (red pupil hats) and the Friederikenschule as a Lyceum (blue pupil hats). One of the main educational goals of these three institutions was to enable access to universities. The history of its origins therefore runs parallel to the development of the neighboring universities in Wittenberg (founded in 1502), in Halle / Saale (founded in 1694) and in Leipzig (founded in 1409 as the second oldest German university after Heidelberg).

The Ducal Karlsgymnasium

One of the roots of today's Carolinum grammar school goes back to the Middle Ages. The medieval schools were institutions of the church (monastery schools, cathedral or collegiate schools). Schools have been established at important churches since the 12th century: parish or parochial schools. The Bernburg humanistic grammar school grew out of such a parochial school, which existed centuries before the Reformation at the Marienkirche in the old town. With the Reformation in this church of 1526, the school was transferred to the city, this "city school" was located in the old town churchyard.

The expansion to a grammar school took place when the director (in other sources the name is "Rector") David Gottfried Herzog introduced the high school diploma. In 1801 the Matura examination was held for the first time in Bernburg. The curriculum corresponded to that of the Prussian grammar schools. Since 1827, English lessons have been a specialty that cannot be found in other institutions of the time. The year 1835 brought the institution the name "Gymnasium".

According to the “Highest Resolution” of August 11, 1842, the institution was named “Carlsgymnasium” in honor of Duke Alexander Carl von Anhalt-Bernburg . The seal determined for the school by order of November 28, 1842 shows the signature "Herzogliches Carlsgymnasium".

The revolutionary year of 1848 revived resistance against outdated institutions. The primary goal here was the liberation of the grammar school from church power. In the state parliament, its member Adolf Zeising articulated these demands, who was at the same time professor and sub-principal of the grammar school. The new state school status was fixed in the state constitutional law of December 14, 1848. In the end, however, the government won a victory over the parliament, so that by the highest ordinance of December 16, 1850, the school was again subordinated to the church consistory. Zeising was excluded from classes and put on hold; from then on he lived as a writer in Munich. It was only after the founding of the empire in 1875 that a state high school authority implemented the original requirements of 1848. In 1863, with the death of Duke Alexander Carl, the Carlsgymnasium (director Karl Franke) was transferred to Dessau administration.

High school Carolinum Bernburg, also the administrative seat, building Schlossgartenstrasse 14 (located in the former palace garden)

Under the direction of Brandt, the inauguration of the newly built, shared school building in Schlossgartenstrasse for the Karlsgymnasium and the Karls-Realgymnasium took place on June 1, 1882, which therefore continued to work under one roof. After Brandt's early death in 1888, Hachtmann, a classmate of Friedrich Nietzsche at the Naumburg Cathedral Gymnasium, took over the inheritance; he held the office until 1907. During the period of office of Köhler the years of the First World War fell , which severely impaired the teaching process.

From 1919 director Trenkel led the Karlsgymnasium out of the difficulties of the post-war period. According to the plans of the school administration, the conversion into a “reform high school” began in 1922. In the sexta, French took the place of Latin. From 1923, English was introduced as the first foreign language. From the school year 1926/27 on, girls also attended the Karlsgymnasium for the first time. At the end of this school year the directorate changed to the director of studies Fritze, who was responsible for the full expansion of the reform high school until 1931. In the distribution of hours, Latin and Greek had declined considerably, while modern languages, geography, mathematics, physics, drawing as well as German and music had increased. This is how the reform high school should become competitive.

The Third Reich began for the Karlsgymnasium with Director Fritze on leave on March 31, 1933 and later retired. His deputy director of studies, Drosihn, was appointed to manage it. The reform was reversed, the humanistic grammar school restored: the first foreign language was Latin again, and Greek was added in 1935/36. The new educational goal was to raise awareness that every young person is a member of the national community. The selection of students was not based solely on their previous knowledge, but also on their disposition, their overall personality and their genetic makeup. The subject of biology acquired a racist tendency. From the spring of 1934, no pupils of the Jewish faith attended this institution. The extracurricular life was largely determined by membership of the National Socialist youth associations: the primary school students were predominantly in the SA (Sturm Department), the middle school students in the Hitler Youth, those in the lower classes in the German Young People.

The celebrations for the 100th anniversary of the Karlsgymnasium took place on September 7th and 8th, 1935. The program included an exhibition of artistic student works, a gymnastics show, a tribute to the fallen, performances by the school choir and school orchestra as well as a ceremony in the city theater and a ball in the Kurhaus.

In 1936, the Reich Ministry of Culture decreed that the time spent at school at all higher education institutions in Germany should be reduced from nine to eight years. The 4-year general elementary school had already been introduced in the Weimar Republic. The high school diploma took place after 12 years of schooling.

In 1937, the existing grammar schools in the entire German Reich were converted into "high schools for boys". Since then, the Karls-Realgymnasium has been called "Karlsschule, Oberschule für Junge" (high school for boys). The humanistic Karlsgymnasium, on the other hand, found little interest among pupils and parents, so the Anhalt school authorities decided to dismantle the Bernburg Karlsgymnasium from Easter 1937. The humanistic grammar school in Bernburg, which had existed since 1835, came to an end two years after its 100th anniversary. On September 30, 1937, its acting director Drosihn retired. On December 6, 1937, the previous director of the Friedrikenschule, Senior Studies Director Friedrich Gottlieb Schmidt, a member of the NSDAP and the SA and trained in the National Political Education Institute (NapoBi) Ballenstedt, took over the joint management of the Karlsschule and the remaining classes of the Karlsgymnasium, which were to be expired.

The Second World War brought deep cuts for the Bernburg secondary schools. Teachers were called up for military service. Ebert had to take over the representation of the appointed director Schmidt in both schools. Lessons were interrupted by countless missions: the students performed harvest work, war aid services, collecting campaigns, etc. When in 1943 six of the 7 8th grade students were drafted into the labor service and then into the armed forces, Wolfgang Sarg was the only student left. On January 10, 1944, he was the last graduate to take his matriculation examination. The humanistic Karlsgymnasium zu Bernburg, which had existed for 108 years, was literally buried with the high school graduate coffin. Only the former Karls-Realgymnasium had survived under the name "Karlsschule, Oberschule für Jungs". A total of 78 former students from the Karlsgymnasium were killed in World War II.

The Herzogliche Karls-Realgymnasium

The history of the Realgymnasium begins on October 1, 1853. A class was added to the community school for 14 to 16 year olds who did not attend an academy but wanted to prepare for a technical or commercial subject or the teaching profession. From this the later “Higher Citizens School” (Director Fischer) and from this the “Realgymnasium” developed.

In 1882 the Higher Citizens' School, which until then had been housed in the building on the Altstädter Kirchhof together with the grammar school, moved to the building on Junkergasse, which was again shared with the grammar school. At the same time, the school was given the name "Herzogliches Realgymnasium" by order of April 19, 1882. With the decree of May 3, 1886, the institution was named "Herzogliches Karls-Realgymnasium". A change from the humanistic-oriented grammar school to the secondary school was quite possible, as the example of the well-known chemistry professor Alfred Rieche shows.

The Realgymnasium continued to develop until the transition to a “Reform Realgymnasium” in 1922: the first foreign language became English, the second foreign language Latin. This development into a reform high school with further changes in the curriculum was completed in 1931, but in 1932 French was substituted for the first foreign language.

On March 19, 1932 the celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Realgymnasium took place. It referred to the name given in 1882 and was organized together with the "Association of Former Students of the Karls-Realgymnasium". Since then, the school has had a radio set donated by the industry (Mirag) in its possession, and in autumn a “speaking machine” for records was added.

An order of the Anhalt State Ministry of September 9, 1932 ordered that the minutes and drafts in all subjects with the exception of foreign languages ​​had to be made in Sütterlin script. The "German folk script" introduced uniformly in Germany in 1935, a variant of the pointed Sütterlin script, was soon abandoned and instead taught only Latin script from the school year 1941/42 , the so-called new "German normal script".

In the Third Reich , the development of the Realgymnasium was comparable to that of the humanistic grammar school. The "Reform-Realgymnasium" was converted back into the old Realgymnasium. On September 30, 1937, the director of both institutions, Karl Drosihn, was retired. Wilhelm Ebert took over until December 6, 1937, when Friedrich Gottlieb Schmidt, director of studies, who had headed the Friederiken School since 1933 and was very close to National Socialism, was given the task of managing both institutions together.

In the entire German Reich, the existing high schools were converted into "high schools for boys". The Karls-Realgymnasium therefore had the name "Karlsschule, high school for boys" since 1937. The old class designations were abandoned and replaced by a numbering: Class 8 (Prima), 7 (Upper Second), 6 (Lower Second), 5 (Upper Second), 4 (Lower Second), 3 (Quarta), 2 (Quinta), 1 (Sixth ). Grades 8 and 7 were divided into a linguistic and a mathematical-scientific course. A school reform had introduced new curricula and a standardization of the lesson tables throughout the German Reich. As a school type, the high school prevailed, so that there were hardly any difficulties in retraining. It remained largely with the previous subjects.

In October 1939, all 8th grade students registered for military service, so that their lessons were canceled; the certificate of departure at Easter 1940 contained the note that it was considered to be a school leaving certificate. Also in 1939 the joint director Schmidt was drafted, and the deputy director Wilhelm Ebert had to take over his duties until the end of the war. Then Ebert was dismissed without notice in June 1945 because of his membership in the NSDAP.

In 1921 30 former students founded the "Association of Former Students of the Karls-Realgymnasium zu Bernburg" on the initiative of Ebert. First mayor Friedrich Gothe, who was in office from 1919 to 1933, was elected chairman, and Ebert took his place from 1924 to 1945. He wrote the book “History of the Karls Realgymnasium zu Bernburg” from 1931. The largest events supported by the association included the celebrations “50 Years of the Realgymnasium” from 1932 and the “800th Anniversary of the City of Bernburg” from 1938. 1945 all associations in the Soviet occupation zone were dissolved. An application for readmission that Ebert submitted to the city administration was rejected in 1948.

The Friederiken School

Carolinum Bernburg high school, Friedensallee 2-4 building (former Friederiken high school)

This girls' school began in 1810, at the time of the oppression of Europe by Napoleon. It was housed at Breite Straße 88 in the old town. Demoiselle Wilhelmine Thilo from Halberstadt was confirmed as teacher and supervisor, but was followed in 1811 by Madame Stamm, widow of the Gendarmerie Quartermaster Stamm. She remained the head of the school until 1860.

On September 17, 1942, the Friederiken School in Bernburg celebrated its 100th anniversary. The date is based on the name given by the Duchess Friederike von Anhalt-Bernburg (spelling also: Friedrike). The Friederiken School was one of the public schools that administered their school classes themselves and received their money from school fees. These public schools were still in the same relationship as the old church schools and were therefore also called parochial schools. The first director of the Friederiken School was from 1845 the senior teacher Ludwig Daude. Under his leadership, the number of female students increased sharply. The house in Langen Gasse soon turned out to be too small, so that he aimed for a new building and implemented it. On November 4th, 1850, the new school building at Schlossstrasse 3 was inaugurated.

It was not until 1861 that the state took over the building, and a public school became a state institution. When Daude retired in 1870, she had 188 students. In 1874 it entered the ranks of the purely state secondary schools by state law, and the religious school supervision was finally abolished. As the population grew, so did the number of classes and students. The Anhalt government therefore approved a new school building. The building was erected in 1907/08 on Kaiserstraße, today's Friedensallee 2-4. Privy Councilor Rümelin, to whom the Anhalt school system owes a lot, emphasized in his dedication speech that women's education finds its ultimate goal in education for a job .

Since 1909 the Friederiken School with 10 grade levels was a fully developed secondary school for girls according to the regulations in Prussia. After the First World War, the school was further expanded as a full establishment in terms of class and student numbers. In 1923 the school was converted into the Friederiken Lyceum as an upper lyceum .

In the Third Reich the Friederiken School got a different face. Director Heinrich Lenz had to leave in October 1933; he was the first head of the Friederiken School to be removed from office for political reasons. On October 20, 1933, the new director was Friedrich Gottlieb Schmidt, a member of the NSDAP and the SA, coming from the Oberrealschule Köthen. Despite heated arguments with the new director, five of the seven male teachers did not join the NSDAP, including post-war director Otto Kersten.

The approach of the Second World War was evident when the gymnasium for storing grain was confiscated in October 1938; it was only allowed to be used again in April 1940. When the war broke out, three teachers were drafted. The schoolgirls were used for all kinds of auxiliary work, especially in the field of agriculture. On February 1, 1945, the Friederiken School was confiscated as a hospital and remained occupied until the end of July.

On April 16, 1945, Bernburg was occupied by US troops. The school building was gradually repaired. On June 25, 1945, under the initiative of the student councilor Otto Kersten , the first repetition courses began for the students in church rooms. An order from the Soviet authorities in the Soviet-occupied zone of Germany, to which Bernburg had belonged since July 1, 1945, enabled the school to run in 15 classes with 420 pupils from October 1945. Otto Kersten was entrusted with the management . From January 1947 to 1950, the politically unencumbered student council also had to take over the management of the Karl Marx Oberschule , which has now been established . All teachers had to undergo retraining.

From September 1946, the uniform school was realized in the Soviet zone : 8 years of elementary school for all pupils and 4 years of high school or 2 years of middle school or 3 years of vocational school. In all classes, the boys and girls received lessons together according to the principle of co-education. Compulsory Russian lessons for all students began in the 5th grade .

Architectural history

The original "city school" as a root for the Carolinum grammar school was located in the old town next to the traditional Marienkirche, which was already mentioned in a document in 1228 in today's street "Altstädter Kirchhof 1/2". A boys' middle school was later built there, today's "Adolph Diesterweg" elementary school.

In 1841 the company moved to a larger building in "Junkergasse" in the old town (today "Before the Nienburger Tor"). This was inaugurated by the director Georg August Herbst. Later the "Agricultural Research Station" moved into the building under the direction of Hermann Hellriegel .

The Carlsgymnasium was founded in 1835. Since the 1840s, the Ducal Carlsgymnasium and the Higher Citizens School have shared the premises in Junkergasse. With the rapidly growing school classes in the early days of the 1870s - the population of Bernburg was then approaching 20,000 - these rooms became too narrow, and a decision was made to build a new school.

The current school building in Schlossgartenstrasse was built between 1880 and 1882 on behalf of the Anhalt ducal government according to plans by the government architect Hans Breymann in the palace gardens of Bernburg Palace . The building was constructed in such a way that two spatially separate parts were created. In one part the humanistic-oriented grammar school was accommodated , in the other the real grammar school including pre- school. The separate entrances for these two types of schools are arranged on the narrow sides of the building. The classrooms are grouped around an atrium in the middle . The exterior of the building is a strictly Prussian-looking yellow brick building with neoclassical decorative elements. The former orangery of the castle has been converted into a gym .

The new high school building was inaugurated on July 1, 1882 by Director Brandt. In 1886 the higher middle school was able to move into this building as the Carls-Realgymnasium . On May 3, 1886, according to the order of His Highness the Duke, the "Herzogliche Realgymnasium" (formerly Higher Citizens' School) and the "Herzogliche Carls-Realgymnasium" were combined into one teaching institute under the common name "Carolinum". High school supervisor Krüger from Dessau introduced the new director of the high school "Carolinum", Hutt into his office.

The building was the most representative school building in Bernburg when it was built. In preparation for the 100th birthday of the grammar school in 1935, a number of structural measures were carried out in 1927/30 : new steam heating, renewed gym equipment, electrical signal clock, light cables added, renewal of the classrooms, the vestibule and the stairwell, modern toilet facilities in the Inner courtyard, new card room, top class with tables and chairs instead of the school desks, contemporary wall decorations and a storage room for bicycles. The state government's job creation program made it possible in 1933/35 to refurbish the baroque facade of the former orangery, which was used as a gymnasium, using solid stone carving and to renew the auditorium. From 1936 the high school had a "school camp" in the Harz town of Güntersberge. In the local heritage list this school is listed below the detection number 094 60106 as a historic landmark.

The Bernburg girls' school started in 1810. It was initially housed in a building at "Breiten Straße 88" in the old town. The school later moved to a house in the "Lange Gasse" of the mountain town.

In 1842 the institute was named "Friederiken School". The first director was the senior teacher Ludwig Daude . Under his leadership the number of female students increased rapidly. When the house in Langen Gasse was no longer enough, he applied for a new building and convinced the government and the state parliament to which he belonged. The superintendent garden next to the castle church was bought by the state in 1849 as a building site. However, Daude had to build the building as a private construction: Daude advanced about a third of the costs himself, another third was borrowed from the Fonds mons pietatis, the rest came from various other sources. On November 4, 1850, the new late classical school building was inaugurated by the director Daude; it is not the present building at Friedensallee 2-4 (Friedrich-Engels-Schule), but the later trade school “Friedrich List” located in Schlossstrasse 3 between the castle church and the extended Kugelweg / Käthe-Kollwitz-Strasse.

In 1880 Bernburg had 18,000 inhabitants, in 1890, after the construction of the Deutsche Solvaywerke AG , there were 28,000. The number of classes and pupils grew accordingly. The Anhalt government therefore built a new school in 1907/08 as a secondary school for children in "Kaiserstraße", today "Friedensallee 2-4". The architect and site manager was the town planning officer Friedrich Gothe in Köthen, who was later mayor of Bernburg from 1919 to 1933. The building was inaugurated on January 8, 1909 under the director Rudolf Fricke as the most impressive new school building at that time in Bernburg.

The facilities in the GDR era

On September 1, 1950, almost a year after the founding of the GDR , the secondary schools of the Karl-Marx-Schule (building Schlossgartenstrasse 14) and the Friedrich-Engels-Schule (building Friedensallee 2-4) were opened in the building of the Karl-Marx-Schule School, the former "Carolinum", amalgamated. After that there was only the “Karl Marx Oberschule” as a secondary school in Bernburg. In the GDR era, the Friedrich Engels School was therefore initially an 8-class elementary school.

The former Karls-Realgymnasium, known in the Third Reich as "Karlsschule, Oberschule for boys", was initially called Karl Marx Oberschule during the GDR era . The term “grammar school” was considered “bourgeois” in the GDR and was never used again (it had already been abolished in 1937). For the training in school years 9 to 12, the students could choose between an A-branch (modern language specialization) and a B-branch (mathematical and scientific specialization). The aim of the training was to obtain the secondary school leaving certificate (university entrance qualification, Abitur), which entitles the holder to university studies. Until the beginning of the 1960s, there was also the possibility of leaving school after the 10th year of school with the secondary school leaving certificate. In the 1959/60 school year, in addition to the Abitur, students began to obtain a skilled worker qualification for each class: as a locksmith or as an electrician or for arable farming and plant breeding. The latter closely linked to the College of Agriculture in Bernburg-Strenzfeld that of the since 1961 pioneer of plant breeding Fritz Oberndorf was built as founding rector and after German reunification as a university Bernburg site with 3,000 students and 50 professors in the University of Anhalt continues .

In October 1955, a boarding school was set up for the Karl Marx Oberschule at Nienburger Straße 9 (Talstadt; demolished during the GDR era) for external students, mainly for students from the Bernburg district. The first boarding school director was Karl Görner , drawing and art teacher and painter. In 1959 the boarding school came into close proximity to the secondary school. It moved into the building of the former ducal riding school in the Marstall at Schlossstrasse 11, which was converted for administrative purposes (tax office), in which the District House II was temporarily located, today the Bernburg II town hall . The construction of a new boarding school began in 1974 on Zepziger Strasse and was completed in May 1979.

With the school year 1960/61, a new school law came into force in the GDR, according to which the Polytechnic Oberschule (POS) with 1st to 10th grade as a generally binding type of school and the Extended Oberschule (EOS) with 9th to 12th grade as higher School were introduced. The Bernburger Oberschule got the status of an EOS with the designation Extended Oberschule "Karl Marx" . With this school reform, the Friedrich-Engels-School became the 10-class Polytechnic High School "Friedrich Engels" .

The grammar schools after German reunification

After the German reunification , the extended high school Karl Marx became the grammar school Carolinum again . In December 1990, the Friedrich Engels School became the Friederiken Gymnasium . The "Hermann-Hellriegel-Gymnasium" was founded on January 9, 1995, it emerged from the 10-class polytechnic high school "Juri Gagarin", which opened in 1968.

A total of 5 grammar schools were established in what was then the Bernburg district; In addition to the three in Bernburg mentioned, the grammar schools in Alsleben (Saale) and Nienburg (Saale) were added in 1991 . The Alsleben grammar school was later assigned to the Herrmann-Hellriegel grammar school as a branch, the Nienburg grammar school to the Friederiken grammar school. In the meantime, the high school education in Alsleben and Nienburg has ended again.

These four grammar schools were also created in order to meet the sharply increased need for grammar school education while at the same time extending the duration of training to the 5th to 13th school year. Over the years, this need consolidated and the duration of training in Saxony-Anhalt was finally set at 12 school years after four changes between 12 and 13 years. Therefore, the decision matured to merge the three grammar schools in Bernburg with the beginning of the 2003/2004 school year to form an extended grammar school Carolinum. The result was a uniform Carolinum Bernburg grammar school with the Schlossgartenstraße building for classes 9 to 12 and the administrative headquarters (headmistress: Karla Reiter ) as well as the second Friedensallee building for classes 5 to 8 (deputy headmaster: Christoph Riesner ). The previous Friederiken-Gymnasium became part of today's Carolinum Gymnasium; Since it was founded in 1810, the Friederiken School has had a total of 18 different names, i.e. a new name about every 10 years.
