Tellkampfschule

The Tellkampfschule is a gymnasium in Hannover's Südstadt-Bult district and houses a classic school building from the post-war period. The structure displays typical features of 1950s architecture and serves as an educational facility for students of various ages.

The school was founded in 1835 by Adolf Tellkampf as a higher citizens' school and moved several times before settling in its current building in 1956. This relocation after World War II made possible the construction of a modern school building for a growing student body.

The school carries the name of its founder Adolf Tellkampf and has shaped educational life in this district for generations. It functions as a place where students and teachers from different backgrounds meet and interact daily.

The grounds are active during weekdays during the day, with classrooms, break areas, and recreational spaces for students. The best time to visit is outside of class hours or during school holidays when there is less activity.

In the school foyer stands a bronze bust created in 1950 by Friedrich Adolf Sötebier to honor the institution's 175 years of history. This sculpture is a local landmark and shows the lasting connection between the artist and the school.
