Gymnasium Wenzgasse, Secondary school in Hietzing, Austria

The Gymnasium Wenzgasse building features large Corinthian half-columns above the portal and combines classical architecture with modern educational facilities spanning multiple wings.

Founded in 1904 as a six-year girls' lyceum, the institution moved to its permanent location at Larochegasse 2 in 1906, marking the beginning of its educational legacy.

The school maintains a memorial plaque honoring former students and teachers who lost their lives during the Nazi regime, preserving the memory of this historical period.

The institution accommodates 645 students across 26 classrooms, with 71 teachers delivering a curriculum that includes ancient Greek language studies and dual language programs.

The 1931 extension, designed by architects Hans Jaksch and Siegfried Theiss, represents the International Style of architecture that characterized Vienna during that period.
