Goethe-Oberlyzeum

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Goethe-Oberlyzeum was a girls' gymnasium in Königsberg, Germany, named in honor of the writer Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.

History

In 1913 a women's teaching institute (Lehrerinnenbildungsanstalt) was converted into a gymnasium.[1] Fritz Gause began lecturing there in 1922.[2] The school, which was located on Friedrichstraße in Neue Sorge, was acquired by the city of Königsberg in 1925.[3] Its directors included Bruno Dannenbaum and Richard Scheibe.[4] The building survived World War II and is now in Kaliningrad, Russia.[2]
