Klosterschule vom Heiligen Grab

Klosterschule vom Heiligen Grab is a school complex in Baden-Baden built on the grounds of a historical monastery. The campus combines older buildings with modern classrooms, a church, and recreational areas for students.

The complex was founded as a monastery in the 1670s and suffered severe destruction during warfare in 1689. After centuries as a religious community, it later transformed into an educational institution.

The name references the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, a connection chosen deliberately by the founders. The chapel is still used today for school events and religious celebrations, shaping daily life at this place.

The grounds are accessible during school hours, though they are best explored during normal classes when the campus feels lived-in. Arranging a guided visit in advance is recommended to see the full scope of the complex and its chapel.

The grounds were home to an independent female religious community for centuries before becoming entirely a school. This connection to its monastic past shapes the appearance of the place even today.
