Städtisches Werner-von-Siemens-Gymnasium, Public gymnasium in Neuperlach, Germany.
The Städtisches Werner-von-Siemens-Gymnasium is a public school in Munich's Neuperlach district with modern architecture featuring elements of moderate brutalism. The building was designed by architects Bernhard von Busse and Eberhard Schunck and currently houses several hundred students.
The school was founded in 1970 as part of a major expansion of Munich's school infrastructure, which included nine new gymnasiums built between 1967 and 1973. The dedicated school building was completed in 1975 and has shaped the area's character since then.
The school offers instruction in several languages, including Chinese, English, French, Latin, and Spanish. Students can also engage deeply with mathematics and computer science.
The school building is located on Quiddestrasse near Ostpark and is easily accessible by public transport. Visitors should note that this is an active school, so visits outside school hours are most practical.
The school building served as a filming location for several German feature films, including productions like Fack ju Goehte 3. Its distinctive brutalist architecture made it a visually interesting setting for movie shoots.
