The Progymnasium Dr. Bussenius was a private school in Lübeck that existed under various names from 1824 to 1901 and prepared students for visiting the Katharineum .

history

In 1824, the Hanoverian candidate for the ministry of preaching, F. Köhler, founded an elementary school for boys up to the age of 10 in Lübeck. Over the years this institution grew considerably. During the first fifty years of its existence, after Köhler had left Lübeck soon after it was founded, it was led by candidates from the Lübeck Spiritual Ministry while they were waiting for their first job in a pastoral office and was therefore given the name Candidate School . These candidates included the later Luebeck clergy, Pastor Fabricius and Michelsen at St. Jakobi , Senior Pastor Holm at St. Marien , Pastor Friedrich Luger at the Cathedral , Pastor Becker at St. Marien, Pastor Carstens and Carl Ferdinand Grautoff at the Cathedral, Pastor Trummer at the Marienkirche, later chief pastor to St. Petri and chief pastor Lindenberg to St. Jakobi.

Under the direction of Carl Ferdinand Grautoff, the eldest son of Ferdinand Heinrich Grautoff , from 1853 to 1862 the institution, now known as the Grautoff Candidate School , experienced a significant boom. He united them with the so-called game school , whereby the number of classes was increased from three to four. The school gave the school the greatest possible consideration of the individuality of the individual pupil, which is easier to carry out at a private school than at a large public institution, and lively personal intercourse between teachers and pupils, even outside of school hours, through walks and excursions together and the organization of smaller festivities their peculiar [sic!] character.

Under the leadership of the candidate Trummer, the number of students, which had previously been constant at 40, rose to over 100. In 1872, candidate Lindenberg added the quarters to the offer, so that the students of the institution now switched to the tertia of the Katharineum. For the increased number of pupils and the expanded offer, a house of their own was necessary, which was found at Fleischhauerstraße 67 / 67a.

After Lindenberg was appointed pastor of the church in Nusse , Otto Bussenius took over the management of the institution on April 1, 1874 until he dissolved it 27 years later.

He expanded the Progymnasium founded under Lindenberg . So he adapted the curriculum to that of the Katharineum, expanded the classrooms by building a new classroom wing in the courtyard and his own gym (1875) and expanded the staff. During his tenure, the school was named Progymnasium by the school inspectorate . Most of the students now spent seven years of their schooling here, as it was customary to spend two years in the fourth.

In March 1899, Bussenius was able to hold an anniversary celebration for his 25th anniversary in office with many former students. A little later, in view of the imminent reorganization of our school conditions , in particular the imminent upgrading of the Johanneum to a high school , he was forced to close the high school. The buildings and teaching staff were taken over by the high school authorities of the Hanseatic City of Lübeck.

The building complex housed here from 1905 to 1912, a branch school of the Real Gymnasium and Johanneums , 1909, the II. Girls' Middle School and Luise Kaibel opened here in 1911, the private Lübeck Conservatory of Music that from 1913 to 1916 Lübeck Conservatory of Music was. It has been a listed building since 1976 .
