from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

history

In 1930, the Prussian minister of education, Adolf Grimme, opened the Pedagogical Academy in Halle (Saale) intended for Protestant students in order to accept future primary school teachers for academic training in the province of Saxony . The first director of the academy was Julius Frankenberger until the leave of absence for political reasons in 1933 . His successor in Hirschberg was the National Socialist folklorist Herbert Freudenthal .

The press spokesman for the previous minister of education, Carl Heinrich Becker , the social democratic pedagogue and later resistance activist Adolf Reichwein , was appointed professor of history and civics on April 1, 1930 and taught until his dismissal in 1933. In 1933 he married the lecturer in gymnastics (since 1932) Rosemarie Pallat .

The social pedagogue Elisabeth Blochmann taught as a Jew from 1930 to 1933 until she was released. The Protestant theologian Martin Rang taught from 1930 as a lecturer and 1931 as a professor until 1933. The pedagogue Georg Geißler taught from 1931 to 1932. Art and drawing were taught by Fritz Alexander Kauffmann . The youth writer Herbert Kranz taught German from 1930 to 1933. Fritz Mascheck, Karl von Hollander, Hans Hoffmann and Anna Dernehl were released on April 27, 1933.

Because the National Socialists disliked the “red academy”, operations were stopped in April 1933 and almost all lecturers were dismissed under the law to restore the civil service before a targeted rebuilding began in Hirschberg. The large and working-class city of Halle was considered to be too unfavorable for Nazi teacher training .

The Giebichenstein Thomas-Müntzer-Gymnasium is housed in the building of the academy built by Carl Rehorst in 1901–03 as a school .
