Berufsbildende Schulen IV „Dr. Otto Schlein“

The Berufsbildende Schulen IV 'Dr. Otto Schlein' is a vocational training facility in Magdeburg spread across several connected building wings. It features classrooms, specialized workshops for therapy and massage work, kitchens for practical training, laboratory equipment, and sports halls.

The northern building started as a trade school in 1951 and later became a specialized facility for healthcare and social professions after German reunification. A modern extension completed in 2005 was designed to work alongside the original structure.

The school focuses on training professionals in nursing, therapy, and laboratory sciences that are in demand across the region. It helps students prepare for the practical demands they will face in healthcare and social work careers.

The campus is accessible by tram, which stops directly at the facility and makes reaching all training areas straightforward. Keep in mind this is an active school, so visits are best arranged around regular school hours to avoid disrupting classes.

A glass corridor links the newer wing to the protected historic building, creating an interesting contrast between modern and historical architecture. This design allows both parts of the school to function as one cohesive space while remaining visually distinct.
