history
The Schwerin Cathedral Cemetery was located from 1779 to 1863 near the old town on what was then Rostocker Strasse, since 1945 Goethestrasse, until the Old Cemetery was built in what is now Weststadt .
On the site of the cleared cathedral cemetery , the three to five-storey plastered main building of the lyceum was erected by 1914 according to plans by the architect and city builder Hans Dewitz. The L-shaped building has 55 rooms (around 2018), an auditorium and a sports hall. Behind a wrought-iron gate between a very large-format wall is a three-storey risalit above the entrance , which ends with a segmental arch, inside the clock. The three-storey south / north wing with a high basement has a further broad 9-axis entrance project with a semicircular portico and a balcony above it. Across the wing at the north end there is a former gym with a half-hip roof . On the hipped roof of the three-storey wing there is a distinctive multi-storey roof turret with an almost pagoda-like octagonal copper-covered bell dome . The school yard was between the Totendamm and the school building to the west; this was separated from the remaining cemetery area by a path at the rear. The total construction costs amounted to 743,000 marks
The upper lyceum had 52 and the college 53 classes. Since 1919 the school for girls has been called the Municipal Lyseum and Study Institute .
After the Second World War , the lyceum was used as a Soviet high school. In 1993 the Soviet troops left the building. Between 1996 and 2000 the Fridericianum Schwerin moved in; it was previously in August-Bebel-Strasse 11/12. From 1995 to 2000 the school building was renovated for 21 million DM.
