Duborg-Skolen, Secondary school and cultural monument in Flensburg, Germany.
Duborg-Skolen is a dual-language school in Flensburg that serves students from Danish and German communities in Southern Schleswig. The building was constructed in three phases: a core section from 1924 and expansions from the 1950s and 1970s, accommodating around 537 students today.
The school was founded in 1924 as a Danish realskole and received recognition as a secular educational institution in 1958. This status allowed it to serve both language communities during the shifts in governance between Danish and German authority.
The school maintains Danish teaching traditions through its primary language of instruction while operating within the German educational framework. Visitors notice a living bridge between two language communities that coexist in the daily school life.
The school is located at Ritterstraße 27 in central Flensburg. Keep in mind that this is an active school campus, so visiting is best done outside school hours.
Students participate in Operation Dagsværk, a project that connects classroom learning with community service. This reflects a practical approach where the school engages its students with social responsibility in their community.
