from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Karl Friedrich Vangerow (born December 26, 1723 in Stettin ; † January 4, 1750 in Stargard in Pomerania ; also Carl Friedrich Vangerow ) was a German administrative officer. He founded the Vangerow Realschule in Stargard, named after him .

Life

Vangerow was the son of the War and Domain Council Friedrich Vangerow in Stettin and his wife Barbara Charlotte Müller († 1727), daughter of the doctor Bonaventura Müller . He grew up in Stargard in Pomerania , where he was first brought up by his grandfather, the leading Protestant pastor Löper. Later he received private lessons from the rector of the local school, M. Büttner. From 1741 he studied law at the University of Halle .

In 1746 Vangerow was war and domain council at the Pomeranian War and Domain Chamber in Stettin. But just a few years later he resigned from office because of sickness. He died in Stargard in 1750.

Foundation of the Vangerow Realschule

On death, Vangerow donated a significant fortune to a school to be built in Stargard. In 1756 this foundation received the necessary royal confirmation. As specified by Vangerow, the school was built by Andreas Petrus Hecker as a secondary school based on the model of the Hecker's secondary school founded by Johann Julius Hecker in Berlin ; it was named Vangerow Realschule after its founder . The Vangerowsche secondary school existed until 1812, when it already with the 1631 by Peter Groening donated Groening's college was merged and the Council school. The new school was continued as the Gröningsches Gymnasium and existed until 1945.
