The pedagogue (also: old pedagogue ) was a Latin school in Darmstadt .
Architecture and history
The pedagogue was the oldest high school in Darmstadt. The Renaissance building was built between 1627 and 1629 by Seyfried Pfannmüller and Jakob Müller on behalf of Landgrave Georg II as a Latin school ( Ludwig-Georgs-Gymnasium ). The building stood on the grounds of the Frankensteiner Stadthof , right next to the old city wall. The director's office was on the first floor. The four classrooms, a library, the music room and an auditorium were located on the upper floors. The expanded gables took on chambers for additional teachers.
At the end of the 18th century, the originally three-storey school building was increased by one storey and the gable edging on the north side was simplified. The battlement of the city wall, which originally ran through the first floor of the building, was demolished.
In 1831 the grammar school moved to the nearby orphanage that had become vacant. The dilapidated pedagogue was repaired by Georg Moller and acquired by the city in 1843, which housed several boys' school classes there.
Since 1879, the pedagogue served as a pre-school for the old secondary school , today's Ludwig-Georgs-Gymnasium.
From 1936 the pedagogue housed the expanded city museum.
During the Second World War , the building was largely destroyed and most of the museum holdings were destroyed. Only the tower, the base and the coat of arms above the cellar door have been preserved in their original condition to this day.
The rest of the building was rebuilt between 1980 and 1984 according to the original model.
The pedagogue today
The pedagogue is used by the adult education center and several other schools.
In the top of the tower the Vereinigung Darmstadtia e. V. (formerly "Protects Darmstadt") has its seat.
The TIP (Theater in the Pedagogue) is located in the pedagogue's basement .
Others
Fountain
On the pedagogue's forecourt is a round Gothic fountain of unknown origin with a semicircular fountain basin with figurative relief from a former memorial to the fallen .
Darmstadtia
The original figure of Darmstadtia , a patron saint of the city carved out of yellow sandstone by Johann Baptist Scholl the Younger, was in the basement of the building. The figure, also called Hassia (Latinized by Hesse), stood from 1864 to 1905 on the site of the Bismarck monument on Ludwigsplatz, then on Taunusplatz. Just like Bismarck to this day, the Hassia crowned a fountain. Today the Darmstadtia is located in the Darmstadtium .
Bronze reliefs
On the pedagogue's facade there are four bronze reliefs that are reminiscent of Georg Büchner , Georg Christoph Lichtenberg , Justus von Liebig and Ernst Elias Niebergall .
