Marie-Therese-Highschool

Marie-Therese Gymnasium is a secondary school in Erlangen with Art Nouveau buildings constructed in 1909, located near Lorlebergplatz in the city center. The campus features classrooms, laboratories, and other facilities designed for academic instruction.

The building was originally constructed in 1909 as part of a private educational establishment and later received its current name in 1914. The institution was founded to commemorate an Austrian royal family and has evolved over the decades.

The school is named after a historical figure and has shaped the neighborhood for over 100 years. It remains part of daily community life and is recognized locally as a place where young people learn and develop.

Access to the school grounds is typically possible during school hours, and visitors should inquire in advance. The location near Lorlebergplatz makes the school easily accessible by public transportation.

In 2012, students and faculty conducted a potato battery experiment that produced a remarkable voltage achievement. This project demonstrates the creative approach to science education at this school.
