Reuchlin-Gymnasium

Reuchlin-Gymnasium is a secondary school in Ingolstadt serving students from grade 5 through 12 with programs in languages, natural sciences, and technology. The campus features a west wing dedicated to music and chemistry, along with newer buildings added after 2018 to accommodate growing enrollment.

The school was founded in 1832 as Latin preparatory classes and gained full gymnasium status in 1898 under Prince Regent Luitpold. This 19th century establishment marked the beginning of a lasting tradition of classical education in the region.

The school is named after Johannes Reuchlin, a Renaissance humanist whose intellectual legacy shapes the educational approach here. Students work with partner schools abroad and engage in language learning, reflecting a cosmopolitan character that defines daily life on campus.

As a listed monument, the building is viewable from the outside, with the west wing housing music and chemistry facilities showing the modern school infrastructure. Visitors should note this is an active school campus where classes take priority and interior access may be limited.

The school earned recognition in 2022 as Bavaria's first certified cultural school, acknowledging its role in promoting artistic and cultural activities on campus. This certification reflects how the institution has merged its classical roots with modern cultural engagement.
