Realschule am Judenstein, Secondary school in Regensburg, Germany
Realschule am Judenstein is a secondary school in Regensburg that occupies multiple connected buildings, including parts of the former municipal Kreuzschule. A north wing added in 1909 forms an integral part of the school's overall structure.
The school was founded in 1955 with three initial classes and received its current name in 1982. An Israeli ambassador attended the naming ceremony that marked this official designation.
The school's name comes from a Jewish gravestone discovered during construction work nearby in 1928. This finding connects the building to an important memory of the city's Jewish past.
The school is located on Judenstein Street and is accessible on regular school days for visits. Visitors should check ahead about access policies and the best times to arrive.
Around 60 Jewish gravestones discovered during excavation work are preserved on or near the grounds. They form a visible connection to the school's identity and the city's heritage.
