Goetheschule Ilmenau, Secondary education institution in Ilmenau, Germany
Goetheschule is a gymnasium in Ilmenau located at Herderstrasse 44 with a focus on mathematics and natural sciences. The building sits near forest areas and serves students from grades 5 through 12.
Founded in 1903 as a municipal secondary school, it relocated to its current forest-adjacent location in 1922. That same year, the renaming after Goethe marked a new chapter in its development.
Named after writer Johann Wolfgang von Goethe from 1922 onward, it reflects the town's connection to intellectual life. The school serves as a central gathering place for students and families in the community.
The campus is easily walkable and situated in a quiet area with forest access. Visitors should contact the school ahead of time to arrange any visit to the grounds.
The school operates its own boarding facility on campus for students from other towns. It is also one of just three schools in the Thuringia region offering advanced mathematics programs.
