Gelehrtenschule des Johanneums, Heritage monument in Winterhude, Hamburg.
The Gelehrtenschule des Johanneums is a secondary school in Hamburg-Nord combining older and newer buildings on its grounds. The campus includes classrooms, subject-specific spaces for sciences and languages, a library, and the Forum Johanneum opened in 2007 with dedicated areas for arts, music, and sports.
Founded in 1529 by Johannes Bugenhagen, this is Hamburg's oldest secondary school. It began with a focus on Latin education and shaped how the city approached teaching young people.
The name reflects its founder Johannes Bugenhagen and his influence on education. Today, you can see how students use both the older buildings and newer spaces as part of their learning environment.
The school sits on Maria-Louisen-Strasse in Winterhude and is easily accessible by public transit. Keep in mind this is an active school campus, so visits are possible by prior arrangement.
The school library holds a collection of over 55,000 volumes, including a Latin Bible from 1491. This historical collection makes the library a valuable resource for students and researchers.
