The Luisenstift grammar school is a grammar school in Radebeul - Niederlößnitz (Straße der Jugend 3) in the German state of Saxony , with a mathematical and natural science, a social science and a linguistic branch. The historic main building is also known as the Luisenhaus .
history
The Luisenstift was founded by Louise Henriette von Mangoldt (1823–1865) on October 12, 1857 in Tharandt as an "institution for daughters of higher classes" in the form of a collective school with an associated boarding school. The education for the girls of the educated classes consisted mainly of housework, singing and gymnastics and also conveyed Christian values . In 1864 50 students were taught.
After Mangoldt's death due to a measles infection , the school went to the Diakonissenanstalt Dresden , as determined by her testament 10 days earlier , which renamed the school to Louisenstift in honor of its deceased founder on her next birthday, November 28, 1865 . Mangoldt had appointed Countess Julie von Vitzthum as successor in the management of the monastery . Soon afterwards the school became too small. Since the Diakonissenanstalt with the hospital already had a daughter institution in Niederlößnitz that were there Fuchs'sche vineyard land and the adjacent valley Domestic and Justischen possessions acquired for a new school building.
On November 28, 1868, the foundation stone was laid for the new building that the Ziller brothers began in spring 1869 at the new location in Niederlößnitz. At Easter 1870, school operations for the “senior daughters” started in the new buildings, while the “senior sons” from Niederlößnitz had to travel to Dresden or Meißen for many years, until 1884 Hoffmann was director in today's clubhouse (Dr.-Külz-Straße 4) opened his private teaching and education institute for boys from 6 to 15 years, the Hoffmannsche Knabeninstitut , a Progymnasium with boarding school. In 1872 a residential and boarding school building was added to the Luisenstift (now a small house ) and in 1875 the toddler school. From 1876 the lessons were given by state-certified teachers. In 1906 the school was expanded into a secondary school for girls with ten classes.
Julie's brother Ernst Bernhard Graf Vitzthum von Eckstädt, father of the art historian Georg Vitzthum von Eckstädt , took over the administration of the Luisenstift as monastery administrator , which he reformed extensively so that it “was fully extended even during the war and inflation at the beginning of the 20th century proven ".
From 1924, schoolgirls could take the Abitur , the examination took place at the Dresden teachers' seminar, from 1932 directly at the Luisenschule.
During the time of National Socialism , religious influences were suppressed and National Socialist ideas took their place. In 1940 the deaconesses were expropriated and the school, officially named Oberschule für Mädchen, became the property of the city. From 1945 the pupils of the high school for boys also took part in the lessons in the Luisenstiftschule - that was the common name. From 1992 the reduction to the eight-year grammar school took place.
An architecture competition was held in 2016 for the renewal of the historical building stock and the expansion with a new building.
Vineyard house
Between 2007 and the beginning of 2009, the existing GDR school building of the Dresden Atrium type of the former Weinbergschule , which has been part of the Luisenstift grammar school since 1992 as a vineyard house, was rebuilt for around 6 million euros and a new building was added in the corner to the north. During the renovation, another school building was rented in Radebeul, where most of the students have been accommodated in the meantime . The new building was awarded the Radebeul City Builder Award in 2011 .
