history

school

The Robert Koch High School was established in 1945 when the Litzmann School at Schleiermacherstraße 23 was renamed the Robert Koch School . From 1946 onwards, only the math and science train was called Robert Koch School and in 1950 it moved to Dieffenbachstraße .

In 2015, the school hit the headlines with a class trip to New York for a group of 15 students , which hit the public purse with over € 30,000.

building

The building on Dieffenbachstraße was built in 1875 as a twin school on Urban . As part of the overall system of the school buildings and the former registry office (between Böckhstraße 9-10 and Dieffenbachstraße), it is part of a listed ensemble. Until 1933 it housed the 83rd community school for boys and the 93rd community school for girls. During the Nazi era , the school was renamed the Carl-Michaelis-Oberrealschule in 1939 and a gymnasium was added.
At the end of the Second World War , the gymnasium was destroyed again in 1945 by the Allied air raids on Berlin . In 1950 the Robert Koch High School moved into the building. The gym was not rebuilt, but replaced by a day care center in 1951. In 1965 a tool shed was added.
