Leonardo Da-Vinci Gymnasium

Leonardo da-Vinci Gymnasium is a secondary school in Cologne's Nippes district located at Blücherstraße 15-17, featuring an extensive building complex with modern classrooms and specialized teaching spaces. The facility offers various academic tracks and qualifications for students from lower to upper secondary levels.

The school was established in 1903 and has a long tradition of education in Cologne spanning more than 120 years. Over this period it developed into a significant academic center for the neighborhood.

The school regularly collaborates with local museums and takes students on visits to places like the Neanderthal Museum to connect them with regional history and culture.

The school is located on Blücherstraße and is easily accessible by various forms of transport, as the Nippes district is centrally situated in Cologne. For specific information about visiting hours and school programs, the website gymnasium-nippes.de provides details.

In August 2024 the school participated in a research project about the Edelweiss Pirates, a resistance movement from the Nazi era. This project sheds light on local stories of courage and resistance that often go unnoticed.
