history

The school was founded in connection with the reconstruction of the Remberti Church and the conversion of the collegiate church into its own parish. The church had previously been torn down as part of the Schmalkaldic War in order not to offer any protection to any besiegers in the run-up to the Bremen fortifications. The first location was in two apartments in a building on Rembertikirchhof. The school was equipped with a schoolmaster's school, for the maintenance of which it was assigned the income to its own prebende . The teacher's salary, including room and board, was initially 20  marks and 6  grotes per year and was later set at 60  Reichstalers . In addition, a retirement pension or a widow's pension of 15 thalers was provided. The school fees were set at 24 grotes, children of poorer parents were exempt from school fees.

After the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss the areas belonging to the former diocese of Bremen fell back to Bremen, including parts of the Remberti community. In contrast to Bremen, the diocese was not reformed , but Lutheran . In order to counteract liberal tendencies among the Reformed pastors of the Remberti congregation, the church as a religious institution was administratively separated from the foundation's assets with the school. The foundation's assets were placed under Lutheran administration. The Lutheran educator Grelle was appointed school administrator. Under the liberal-reformed pastor Bekenn (pastor 1805–1834) and the Lutheran Grelle, the Remberti School made considerable contributions to the Bremen school system. In 1810 a seminar for elementary teachers was founded at the school. In 1841 the monastery and church were finally separated at the request of the community, the school, teacher's apartment and church building were transferred to the community.

In 1852 the last building of the school was erected in the style of classicism at Fedellisten No. 78.

In June 1970 the school was closed. In the 1970s, the school building was still used by the grammar school branch of today's school center on Ellener Feld and, from August 1970, by today's Alexander von Humboldt School and later handed over to the Goethe Institute . In 2009 the building was converted into a training center for students in the careers of the elderly and physiotherapy of the Bremer Heimstiftung.
