The Johannes-Scharrer-Gymnasium (short: JSG ) is a municipal high school in Nuremberg , which is located in the immediate vicinity of the castle . The school was named after the entrepreneur and second mayor of Nuremberg, Johannes Scharrer .

history

The Johannes-Scharrer-Gymnasium was founded in 1834 as a commercial school on the initiative of its patron and later namesake Johannes Scharrer . It was not named after Scharrer until 1965. Before that, it was called the Städtische Handelsschule from 1851 . After the establishment of the Hans-Sachs-Gymnasium and the higher school fees due to the higher school fees, the number of pupils fell at the beginning of the 20th century, until the school was even closed in 1910.

As early as 1913, it was re-established as a municipal commercial school for boys , which was located in Findelgasse . The Faculty of Economics and Social Sciences of the Friedrich-Alexander University Erlangen-Nuremberg is located in this school building today . From 1918 on , the school was called the Städtische Höhere Handelsschule für Knaben ( Municipal Higher Commercial School for Boys) , at which Bavaria's first commercial school upper level was established in 1930 .

From 1946, the opening of a six-level substructure turned the school into a commercial high school, to which girls were also admitted from 1947. The higher commercial school for boys continued to build on this, leading to the upper level entrance qualification in four classes. The higher education entrance qualification can be acquired at school since 1956, which is why it was renamed in 1959 as a commercial high school with a commercial college in Nuremberg .

Johannes-Scharrer Gymnasium new building

The old building on Webersplatz has been around since it was rebuilt after the Second World War . The Fürershof community center originally stood at this point , which belonged to the Pfinzing patrician family until 1445 and then to the Fürer von Haimendorf family. The new building next to it was completed in 1974. The so-called art recovery facility is located under the school grounds . From 1943 on, works of art such as parts of the imperial regalia were stored in this part of the panier bunker .

Until the 1990s, the new building was one of the best media-equipped school buildings in Nuremberg; Almost every room there has a permanently installed television and video system to this day.

Since the end of the 2010s, the JSG has been the first “Fairtrade School” in Nuremberg.

Today around 100 full-time teachers teach at the Johannes-Scharrer-Gymnasium.
