Akademisches Gymnasium, Gymnasium in Linz, Austria.

The Akademisches Gymnasium stands on Spittelwiese Street in Linz's inner city district, displaying historical architecture with quadrated walls and cornered edges across three floors.

Founded in 1542 as an Evangelical Provincial School in Luftenberg near Steyregg, the institution moved to Linz Landhaus in 1573 before settling at its current location.

The educational program combines classical languages with modern subjects, offering English from first grade and Latin or French starting from third grade onwards.

Students access the main hall through a monumental staircase with cast iron balustrades, leading to classrooms spread across multiple levels of the protected building.

The institution earned its academic title first between 1796 and 1854, regaining it permanently in 1965 as recognition of its educational excellence.
