Sankt-Ansgar-Schule

Sankt-Ansgar-Schule is a private secondary school at Bürgerweide 33 in the Borgfelde district, run by the Hamburg archbishopric. The building was constructed between 1952 and 1953 and now serves as an educational facility for both boys and girls with a Catholic foundation.

The school was founded in 1946 as a boys' gymnasium by the Society of Jesus and later became coeducational in 1978. The change came under management by the Hamburg archbishopric, which has overseen the school since then.

The building carries the name of a holy missionary, reflecting the school's Catholic orientation and values. The post-war architecture shapes how the place appears in its neighborhood and connects traditional school life with the urban setting of Borgfelde.

The school building is located in Borgfelde and is easily accessible by public transport. Visitors should check ahead about access and visiting opportunities, as it remains an active educational facility.

The school follows the Ratio Studiorum, an educational system developed in the 16th century by the Jesuits, which still guides teaching today. This traditional approach blends with modern methods to shape the school's educational philosophy.
