history

Historical plaque on the west side

On December 3, 1908, the new school building in Eduard-Schmid-Strasse (before 1946, it was Frühlingstrasse ) was inaugurated; previously there was a children's detention center at the same location . From 1908 to 1935, the Royal District Teacher Training Institute for Upper Bavaria was located there. During the period from 1914 to 1919, due to the war, the Maria-Theresia-Kreisrealschule was quartered there. After 1935 the building became the Hanns-Schemm-Aufbauschule (secondary school in short with university entrance examination for boys and girls).

In 1943 the school building was almost completely destroyed in a bomb attack. After the reconstruction in 1952 it was handed over to the New Realgymnasium, which later became the Albert-Einstein-Gymnasium , which in the following years gradually moved to Munich- Harlaching . In 1960 the German grammar school moved into the building under the direction of Barbara Brückner.

It was not until May 4, 1965, that it was named Pestalozzi-Gymnasium, together with the beginning of the nine-year form of the music school.

Since then, Barbara Brückner has been in charge from 1965 to 1968, Hans Wolf Becker from 1968/69, Bernd Zinner from 1988/89 and Joachim Fuchs since 2002/03.

In 1972 the eastern attic was expanded to accommodate music rooms, and the college level began in the 1976/77 school year.

After a year of construction, the G8 extension was completed in 2008, the corridors renovated and, as part of the new classification of the entire building as a new construction, fire doors and a fire escape were installed.

This was followed by a renovation of the toilets, which completed the renovation of the building in the 2009/2010 school year.

In February 2014, Barbara Schöneberger , a former student of the Pestalozzi-Gymnasium, won a party for the Pestalozzi-Gymnasium against Christine Neubauer in the TV show Back to School - Gottschalk's big class reunion , which took place in October in her presence.

On March 26, 2015, the artistic high school received the title of the same name (SoR-SmC) through the work of the working group School without Racism - School with Courage .
