history
The former Krupp spoon factory was bought in 1903 by the school order of the childhood daughters of Jesus and Mary . The building was converted into a school building in 1903/1904. The school was opened and consecrated on October 1, 1904 with Provost Karl Schnabl. At first the school was a so-called girls' boarding school and was run by the sisters until 1938. The National Socialists expropriated the school building from the sisters and the sisters had to leave Wiener Neustadt. The school was continued by the municipality. After the war from 1945, the building served as a shelter for the homeless, as quarters for Russian soldiers and as a hospital.
