During the time of the Electorate of Hanover , the future abbot Johann Christoph Salfeld initiated - without authorization - a court school for the sons of royal servants in 1787 . This competition with the older Latin school in Hanover subsequently led to a modernization of the curriculum of the older educational institution.

As a “preparatory institute for learned schools ”, the institution should initially prepare students for attending university, but also be an educational institution for those who, without a university degree, should aim for the future status of an officer, a businessman or a civil servant.

After three years of positive development of his School Salfeld looked at his sovereign to an official authorization for which was released together suggest "that an appropriate institution for girls the need of the time would correspond to" 1790 approved the result of the personal union between Britain and Hanover in England ruling King George III. at the same time also funds for the establishment of a court daughters school.

Also in 1790, a court daughter school was added to the court sons school from a foundation made by the widow of a law firm official .

The king also donated the house, which was built around 1600 "on the property of the former Barsinghäuser and Marienwerder cloister courtyard " and later numbered 1014 on the corner of Hinter den Mauren in the vicinity of the Hofmar stables . The building, later run as Burgstrasse 23 , had previously served as an apartment for the court preacher . By 1791 the house was also set up as a schoolhouse by royal order .

The “ court sons and [court] daughters school ” was mainly formed for the descendants of the royal servants for the middle and lower classes.

About the early years of the school, the founder wrote a "Brief Message" in 1791 in the linguistic style of his time (see literature).

At the time of the Kingdom of Hanover , the major engineer Georg Wilhelm Müller created the plan of the residential city of Hanover, published in 1822, with the house numbers , in which the "Hof Schule" on Burgstrasse still represents the house number 1014.

In 1852 the Royal Ministry asked the Magistrate of the City of Hanover whether they would like to continue the court school as a municipal institution. After a positive decision and takeover of the school, it was only formally dissolved. However, with the takeover of the house, including its inventory and teachers - de facto as a daughter of the court school - in 1853 the magistrate opened “the oldest urban secondary school for girls ” of the then royal seat , which began operations on April 11, 1853.

The long-sought move out of "the old poor spatial conditions" and the relocation of the secondary school for girls to a new school building at the new Aegidientor - about at the level of the southern exit of today's Prinzenstrasse - took place from April 19 to 21, 1854, before moving under the name Wilhelm Raabe School became known.

After the establishment of the Stadttöchterschule II , it began operations in 1859 at what was then Burgstrasse 23, before moving to Schulstrasse 1 a short time later in 1861.
