history
Private girls' school (from 1859)
The country doctor's daughter Euphrosine "Sina" Kinkelin submitted an application to the city of Lindau in 1858 to set up a girls' school. This was granted and in 1859 the operation of a private educational and teaching institution began in the Bensperghaus in Bindergasse on Lindau Island (today Zeller auction house ).
Municipal high school (from 1937)
In 1930 the school was converted into a lyceum (high school for girls) and in 1937 the school was taken over by the city of Lindau as the “municipal high school”. In 1965 it was converted into a grammar school with a modern language and social science branch and the company moved to Ludwig-Kick- Strasse. In 1971 the school was nationalized; 16 years later, in 1987, boys were allowed to attend for the first time in the history of the school. Since the previous official name City Gymnasium for Girls - Modern Language and Social Science Gymnasium no longer corresponded to the new circumstances, the school was called Gymnasium Lindau (B) II until it was renamed in 1991 .
Valentin-Heider-Gymnasium (from 1991)
In 1991 the name Valentin-Heider-Gymnasium was given.
The legal scholar and councilor Valentin Heider (1605–1664) represented after the Thirty Years' War as envoy at the peace congress in Osnabrück the rights of the city and achieved that Lindau got back rights and freedoms that it had lost in the war. In 1655, Valentin Heider suggested looking after the neglected youth after the horror of the war, and thus founded the Lindau Children's Festival .
A new sports hall was built from June 2012 to June 2013 and inaugurated in July 2013. In 2017 the school yard of the Valentin-Heider-Gymnasium was redesigned and laid out.
