The Marienschule Euskirchen is a high school in the city of Euskirchen with around 1100 students, which was originally a girls' school and was founded in 1868.
history
The first Höhere Töchterschule (girls' school for girls of the upper classes) was founded in 1868 through the efforts of Johann Franz Peter Dubelmann (1865–70 pastor of the parish church of St. Martin in Euskirchen), but the school did not exist and was closed in 1882 .
The difference between the second secondary school for girls , founded in 1898 by the headmistress Maria Müller, and the elementary school was that lessons were only held in the mornings and that several languages (French and English) were also taught. In the spring of 1904 the school was taken over by Ursulines from Meersen for a sum of 35,000 marks , moved in 1910 to the building of today's Willi-Graf-Realschule, and was then handed over to Dominican women on April 15, 1914 . During the First World War a hospital was set up on the ground floor , but lessons continued.
At the time of the monastery school , the school was called Oberlyceum Sancta Maria , but was closed as a result of the Gleichschaltung in 1940 and replaced by the municipal high school for girls, into which the parity girls' school founded in 1910 was integrated. The National Socialist People's Welfare bought the remaining property of the Dominican women. The teacher Joseph Steinmetz, who now was headmaster tried the Christian tradition of the school to continue, but not a member or sympathizer who was NSDAP , which is why he did not for a senior teacher was promoted. Since he was considered "politically unreliable", he would probably have been dismissed, but all schools were closed in autumn 1944, which is why he escaped dismissal. After the war it was initially planned to let Dominican women run the school again, but the negotiations on this did not lead to any result. Instead, the school was reopened as a municipal school and was henceforth called a college with a lyceum and a women's high school . Many of the non-lifelong teachers were fired, but Steinmetz stayed to help restore school life. In 1950 the last Dominican headmistress asked for the school to be given its old name again, or the German equivalent "St. Marien" (for "Sancta Maria"). However, since this would have indicated a bond with the Catholic faith, the school was instead called Marienschule in 1951 , the municipal modern-language girls 'grammar school and women's high school or, for a shorter time, the girls' grammar school Marienschule Euskirchen . The contact with the Dominicans of Arenberg was not completely given up. In 1973 the Marienschule finally moved into a new building (including a gym and cafeteria), where it is still located today. The first male students at the Marienschule came in 1975; During this time the cooperation with the Emil-Fischer-Gymnasium Euskirchen (in the upper level) began.
For the 2019/2020 school year, Michael Mombaur , the former deputy director of the St. Michael grammar school in Bad Münstereifel, will be the new head of the Marienschule. The working at the school since 2006 Jürgen Antwerp went to summer holidays start in retirement .
