history

Already in a document of 1323 that were in Lemgo puellae Scolares the mentioned students convent school of St. Mary .

The previous school of today's grammar school, opened in 1837/1838, was initially housed as a privately run girls' school in a room in the old orphanage . During the March Revolution of 1848/49 , teaching was stopped. The city had the funding set by arguing that the Lemgoer citizens daughters their teaching in the public school received . From 1853 the school was resumed as a private school by a pastor. In 1873 the school moved to the monastery chapel on the Rector's farm in Rampendal (today's Lemgo City Archives ), and in 1911 the school moved to the Haus am Wall in Primkerstraße. Two years later the school was called the Girls' High School .

From 1918 boys were also accepted into the school. The school has been under the municipal administration since 1923 and has been renamed the Municipal Lyceum . After the school became Oberlyzeum in 1939, the school leaving examination could also be taken there. The Marianne-Weber-Gymnasium has been located in the building on Franz-Liszt-Straße since 1961. In 2009 the Marianne-Weber-Gymnasium became the first all-day high school in Lemgo.

Marianne Weber

During her lifetime, the grammar school was named in 1950 after her most famous student Marianne Weber , née Schnitger, wife of the sociologist Max Weber , who had attended school there from 1887. Marianne Weber was born in nearby Oerlinghausen , but after her mother's early death and because of her father's illness, she spent her childhood, school and youth with her two aunts Florentine and Marie Schnitger in Lemgo, who both worked as teachers at the daughters' school at the time. Marie Schnitger was head of the school in 1898.

Learning offers and cooperation

The Marianne-Weber-Gymnasium offers a sports class and a bilingual class for each grade in the lower secondary level. The sport class offers the advantage for young professional athletes that there is an optimized time coordination of the school needs with the sporting requirements, this is created by a close cooperation of the clubs and bases with the sport class coordinators in all years. There are also additional training opportunities in football, handball and swimming. The bilingual class learns more English in grades 5 and 6 (two hours more per week than usual). Two years later, in class 7, English-language teaching begins in the subject subjects. In the upper secondary level, the advanced course in sport and the bilingual subjects geography and history can be taken. In the secondary level II one cooperates with the second Lemgoer Gymnasium, the Engelbert-Kaempfer-Gymnasium, in order to ensure a wide range of subjects. In addition, the Marianne-Weber-Gymnasium has two partner schools with which annual student exchange programs are organized. Since the 2011/2012 school year there has been a cooperation with the IES Cañada Real in Galapagar near Madrid .
