Jiří Guth-Jarkovský Gymnasium

Jiří Guth-Jarkovský Gymnasium, Secondary school in Nové Město, Prague, Czech Republic.

The Jiří Guth-Jarkovský Gymnasium is an eight-year secondary school at Truhlářská 22 in Prague 1, founded in 1874 and housed in its own building since 1886. It has a capacity of 480 pupils in 16 classes, and its founder is the City of Prague. Its headmistress is Jitka Kendíková, with deputies Jana Hujerová and Josef Vlach.

Founded in 1874 as the Second Imperial Royal Czech Higher Gymnasium, the school moved into its own building at Truhlářská 22 in 1886. In 1910 it became an eight-year Realschule, and after 1918 it was renamed the Second State Czechoslovak Real Gymnasium in Prague II. It was closed in 1949, teaching resumed in 1994, and since 1999 it has borne the name of Jiří Guth-Jarkovský.

The school is named after Jiří Stanislav Guth-Jarkovský, who taught here from 1896 to 1918 and was a co-founder of the Czech Olympic Committee. The name was adopted in 1999, five years after teaching resumed in the building.

The school occupies a building on Truhlářská Street in Prague 1, in the Nové Město quarter, with a capacity of 480 pupils in 16 classes. It is an eight-year gymnasium, so pupils enter after primary school and stay through the upper secondary years. The founder is the City of Prague, and Jitka Kendíková is the headmistress.

The school is named after Jiří Stanislav Guth-Jarkovský, who taught there from 1896 to 1918 and was a co-founder of the Czech Olympic Committee. The historian Josef Pekař taught at the school in 1895–1896, and the literary scholar Jan Mukařovský in 1925–1934.
