Rheingau-Gymnasium, Educational institution in Friedenau, Berlin, Germany

Description

Rheingau-Gymnasium is a school in Berlin-Friedenau featuring a distinctive U-shaped stone building with a prominent tower at one end. The interior auditorium houses a Walcker organ, a notable feature that sets this educational institution apart.

History

The school was founded in 1906 as a boys-only Realschule, a type of secondary institution. It transformed into a comprehensive Gymnasium after 1948 and began admitting female students.

Culture

The school is known for its music programs, which regularly organize concerts and performances in its own auditorium. Visitors can sense the musical tradition directly in the spaces of the building.

Practical

The main entrance near the distinctive tower provides access to the campus, where you can orient yourself from the building's layout. The U-shaped structure makes navigation straightforward, with the auditorium positioned centrally and classrooms arranged around it.

Did you know?

The school tower served as an anti-aircraft gun position during World War II, a remnant from a turbulent period. The Walcker organ in the auditorium resembles the famous organ in Berlin Cathedral, giving the school building a musical distinction that is rarely found in educational institutions.
