Bundesrealgymnasium Linz Fadingerstraße, Heritage secondary school in Linz, Austria
Bundesrealgymnasium Linz Fadingerstraße is a school building at the intersection of Fadingerstraße and Bethlehemstraße that offers education with emphasis on media studies and natural sciences. The building is now protected as a heritage site while continuing to serve as an active educational institution for upper secondary students.
The school was founded in 1851 as the Kaiser Franz Joseph Staatsoberrealschule and moved to its current building in 1909 after the original location on Steingasse became too small. This relocation marked a period of modernization and expansion of Linz's educational institutions in the early 20th century.
The school holds the status of a protected heritage site and shapes the character of its neighborhood through its historic architecture. Visitors notice how the building fits into Linz's urban fabric and reflects the city's educational traditions.
The school is reachable through its website www.fadi.at, where information about programs and events is available. The location at the street intersection makes it easily accessible and well-served by public transportation.
Philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein attended the school between 1903 and 1906, shaping his early academic development. His time here was part of his intellectual formation before he became one of the most influential thinkers of the 20th century.
