Rolandschule, Elementary school and architectural heritage monument in Golzheim, Düsseldorf, Germany.
The Rolandschule comprises two three-story buildings connected by glass stairwells, with a mushroom-shaped roof structure over the gymnasium. The structure displays typical Bauhaus characteristics with clean lines and functional design.
Architect Paul Schneider-Esleben designed this school in Bauhaus style, opening in September 1961. The building emerged during a period when modernist architecture shaped educational design in Germany.
The school foyer features works by artists from the Zero movement, such as Heinz Mack, Otto Piene, and Günther Uecker. These pieces shape the character of the interior and connect education with contemporary art.
The building underwent comprehensive renovation in 2006 with modern insulated materials and new windows. Keep in mind this is an active school, so visits may need to be arranged outside school hours.
The school displays fourteen lithographs and etchings by renowned artists such as Miró, Léger, Hoehme, Dubuffet, and Vasarely in glass cases. This collection transforms the building into an unexpected place of artistic encounter for visitors.
