The Riemenschneider-Gymnasium (RIG) is a linguistic and natural science - technological high school in Würzburg . The input foreign language from the fifth grade is Latin or English.
history
The third grammar school in Würzburg was opened in the school year 1886/87 on October 4, 1886 under the name Royal New grammar school as the second humanistic grammar school in the city. In the mid-1920s it was the largest grammar school in Bavaria with more than 800 students. During the Nazi era, it was renamed Oberschule am Rennweger Ring . After it was initially called the Old High School after the war , it was renamed the Riemenschneider High School in 1960 in memory of the sculptor, mayor and freedom fighter Tilman Riemenschneider .
In 1970 the new language branch was introduced, in 1998 the humanistic branch was given up for the introduction of a mathematical and scientific branch, and in the same year the 112-year collaboration ended with the dissolution of the Kilianeum. Since 2002 it has been possible to opt out of Latin after the 10th or 9th grade to choose Spanish as the fourth foreign language. Since the construction of the new building on the site of the Siebold-Gymnasium in 2008, three classrooms and the cafeteria can also be used.
building
The main building is a three-storey three-wing building. It was built around 1880 in the neo-renaissance style of light sandstone ashlar masonry with red sandstone integration . Attached to it is a rear wing . In 1968 an additional wing was added to the grammar school. This is a three-storey flat roof structure that was clamped between the side wings. Its curtain wall is structured by ribbon windows and an open ground floor in the brutalist style with reinforced concrete columns.
The Riemenschneider-Gymnasium building is a listed building.
