The Mörike Realschule Heilbronn is a Realschule on Max-von-Laue-Str. 7–9 in the Heilbronn district of Sontheim . The school authority is the city of Heilbronn. The school was founded in 1876 as a city school for girls on Heilbronn harbor market and soon afterwards became a girls' middle school. After the school building was destroyed in 1944, the school, which was downgraded to an elementary school between 1933 and 1945, was housed in different buildings. In 1951 the new girls 'middle school and the Pestalozzi school were built, and the girls' school has been called Mörikeschule ever since . In 1962 the newly built Helene-Lange-Realschule was split off from the girls' middle school and Mörikeschule. The remaining girls' middle school has been accessible to boys and girls since moving to the current location in Sontheim in 1979 and is called Mörike-Realschule .

Architecture and buildings
description
Exterior architecture
The Heilbronn Girls' Middle School was the first school in Heilbronn to be completely rebuilt. The space between the local health insurance fund, Turmstrasse, Gartenstrasse and Schillerstrasse made it possible to erect three structures, which, due to their position in relation to one another, create several break rooms. The three buildings of the girls' middle school each have their own entrance, one from Schillerstrasse, the second from Geschwister-Schollstrasse and the third from Gartenstrasse.
The Pestalozzi School (12 029.00 m³) and the Mörikeschule (12 237.00 m³) have three floors, while the third structure, the Rectorate Building (6 500.00 m³) has only two floors . This two-storey building has a high ground floor, which is both a lecture hall and a gym, and stands out from the schoolyard on Schillerstraße with its high, 1950s-style glass doors. The former girls' school at the Garden Street was located on the ground floor in the Pestalozzi School and is quite the home-style built in the 1950s. A three- story plastered building with a hipped roof.
