Schule Ernst-Henning-Straße

The Ernst-Henning-Strasse School is a primary school and heritage monument in Bergedorf with architectural features from 1910. Architect Rischpler designed the facade with crafted details and large windows that give the building its distinctive appearance.

The building was constructed in 1910 from designs by architect Rischpler and has shaped Bergedorf's streetscape since then. The naming after Ernst Henning, a parliament member, came later and rooted the school building in local history.

The school is named after Ernst Henning, a local politician remembered in the community's memory. Today it serves as a daily gathering place where the building itself connects students and families to Bergedorf's past.

The school building is a protected heritage structure that can be viewed from the outside. Visitors should know that the grounds may be visited during school hours, though the interior is typically not publicly accessible.

The building underwent extensive renovation starting in 2004, with the addition of a second gymnasium and a theater stage among other improvements. This modernization allowed the protected heritage structure to adapt to contemporary school needs while retaining its historical character.
