The Johanneum zu Lübeck was set up by the council of the Hanseatic City of Lübeck at Easter 1872 as a higher citizenship school and was named Johanneum as a secondary school in 1905. The school follows the tradition of the cathedral school founded in 1163 . Since 1906, the Johanneum has been located in the buildings near St.-Johannis-Kloster at the lower end of Dr.-Julius-Leber-Strasse and Fleischhauerstrasse .

John

Fritz Behn's fountain with the statue of John the Baptist is in the schoolyard . This is an artist's mistake insofar as the name of the school comes from John (Evangelist) . The Johanneum got its present form after numerous spatial, now listed, extensions of the oldest St. John's monastery in Lübeck ( Gothic refectory in the schoolyard).

School grounds

The main building houses the teachers' room, the secretariat and the offices of the school management, the biology, physics, chemistry and art rooms as well as the sixths to fourths (5th to 7th grade). In addition, the school has a refectory in which the music rooms, geology rooms, some classrooms and the changing rooms of the adjacent large gym have been set up. The auditorium is mostly used for exams, by some of the orchestras and for theater events and concerts.

The school cafeteria , which was set up in 2007, is located in the building of the former main fire station , which has housed the classrooms from the lower to upper primary levels (levels 8 to 13) since its renovation . It is operated by the catering service "das-culinarium".

Sports lessons take place between the autumn and Easter holidays in a large gymnasium that can be divided into three parts and in a smaller gym. In summer, lessons are held on the Falkenwiese sports field.

During the summer holidays , the school yard will be converted into the new Johanneum open-air theater .

music

The Johanneum offers a branch of music and participation in one of the numerous orchestras , choirs and student ensembles.

In 2009 the big band of the Johanneum won the state competition "Jazz It Up!" Organized by the Schleswig-Holstein State Music Council.
