Freudenberg School house

The Freudenberg School House features multiple building cubes integrated into the topography of an old park with rooms receiving natural light from multiple sides.

Jacques Schader completed this architectural work in 1960, marking a significant development in European post-war educational building design and construction principles.

The building contains two cantonal schools: Kantonsschule Freudenberg focusing on languages and Kantonsschule Enge specializing in economics and law education.

Students and visitors can reach the school using S2, S8, S24, S25 trains or tram lines 6, 7, 5, 13, and 17, all stopping at Bahnhof Enge station.

The structure incorporates an acropolis-style design while preserving the surrounding park, creating an educational environment where nature meets architectural innovation.
