School history

Front view of the main building

Due to the rapid growth of the city of Stuttgart, planning began in 1911 for a new school building in the south of Stuttgart. After teaching was initially outsourced to neighboring schools for a year, the newly built school building in Schickhardtstrasse was ready for occupation in 1913.

In 1941, what was then the Schickhardt Realschule was renamed the Schickhardt Oberschule (since 1952: Schickhardt Gymnasium). An extension was built in 1971 for the natural sciences.

In 2001 the school received the status of an “Elite School of Sports” for the first time. From 2012 the main building underwent a general renovation, so that the 100th school anniversary could be celebrated in 2013 in the completely renovated and modernized main building.
