Schulzentrum Waller Ring, school in Walle, Germany
The Schulzentrum Waller Ring is a school complex in Bremen's Walle district that educates around 600 students across multiple buildings. The main structure, completed in 1914, features a neoclassical red brick design with three floors and hip roofs, while later extensions and modern additions have expanded the campus.
The building opened in 1914 as a secondary school to serve the growing Walle district. It suffered severe bomb damage during World War II with sections destroyed, then was rebuilt in the 1950s and expanded with a new complex in 1976-1977.
The school center has been a fixture in the Walle neighborhood for over a hundred years and serves as a local landmark. Its brick and stone facade, with distinctive architectural features, is recognized by residents as part of the district's identity.
The school center is located at Steffensweg and Bremerhavener Straße and is accessible by public transport. It functions as an active school, so visiting without prior arrangement and permission is typically not possible.
The school was named after a Nazi figure during that period, which was changed after the war. The current name reflects the school's location in the Walle district and local community identity rather than political history.
