Erasmus-Gymnasium, Educational heritage monument in Amberg, Germany
The Erasmus-Gymnasium stands as a secondary school building at Gymnasiumstr. 79, combining traditional architecture with modern educational facilities for 450 students.
Founded in 1626 by Jesuits, the institution evolved from a Latin school established in 1385 at St. Martin, marking its position as the oldest school in Upper Palatinate.
The curriculum emphasizes language education, offering Latin, English, French, Italian, and Ancient Greek, while maintaining strong exchange programs with schools across Europe.
Students entering fifth grade select between Latin or English as their first foreign language, with the alternative becoming their second language in sixth grade.
The school's logo features an owl that represents both humanistic education and scientific innovation, adopted in 2013 and modified with updated colors in 2018.
