The Städtische Luisengymnasium (short: LUG ) is a linguistic and musical high school in the Munich district of Maxvorstadt . The school, which was founded in 1822 as a "School for Higher Daughters" and has been co-educational since 1969, is the oldest urban high school in Munich and one of the few schools with its own school constitution.

Location

The Luisengymnasium is located in the Maxvorstadt district of Munich near the main train station at Luisenstrasse 7. The school is centrally located at the Old Botanical Garden in the immediate vicinity of Stachus and Königsplatz .

history

The Luisengymnasium is named after Princess Ludovika Wilhelmine of Bavaria , who later became Duchess Luise. She was the daughter of Maximilian I Joseph (Bavaria) and mother of the legendary Sisi . She was very influential and highly regarded. In 1812, for example, Gartenstrasse, which was then on the outskirts, was renamed Luisenstrasse in her honor .

When the "School for Higher Daughters" moved into the newly built Theodor Fischer Building in 1901, the Munich residents called it the Luisenschule. In 1961 the name, which was already in use, was formally given, and from then on the school could call itself the Städtisches Luisengymnasium.

The school was founded in 1822 by Simon Spitzweg , father of the famous painter Carl Spitzweg . In 1901 the students moved into the school house planned by Theodor Fischer . The peace activist Marie Zehetmaier was one of the first women to get a job as a physics and math teacher. From 1905 she taught at the Luisengymnasium.

After the destruction of World War II made a four-year evacuation necessary, the students moved back into the renovated building in 1949. In 1952 the Maria-Heldrich-Landheim was set up in Pöcking on Lake Starnberg . In 1969 the introduction of co-education followed. In 1987, after three years of construction, the new clinker brick building was completed and the general renovation of the old building began. In 1990 the move began again in the newly designed old building. The Luisengymnasium has been an all-day high school since 2005. The new cafeteria was inaugurated on April 21, 2009.

Like all high schools in Bavaria, the Luisengymnasium has switched from the G9 to the G8 . Since the 2010/11 school year there has been an artistic branch in addition to the modern language.

The school is a member of the School Without Racism - School With Courage network .

Others

1996 served u. a. the Luisengymnasium as a backdrop for the film drama Jenseits der Stille by Caroline Link . The chamber orchestra of the time can also be seen in the film.
