Alice-Salomon-Schule, Historic school building in Buchholz-Kleefeld, Germany.
Alice-Salomon-Schule is a school building in Hannover's Buchholz-Kleefeld district that spans several structures with a restored main building from the late 19th century. The campus provides spaces for different educational programs and modern learning environments.
The school was founded in 1878 by the Women's Education Association and started as a trade and household school with eight students learning machine sewing and tailoring. Over time it grew into an institution with broader focus on health and social professions.
The school was renamed in 1999 to honor Alice Salomon, a pioneer who founded Germany's first school for social pedagogy and advocated for women's education. Her name reflects the place's connection to women's learning and social professions.
The campus is accessible and offers educational and training programs in health and social services with modern facilities. Keep in mind it is an active school campus with restricted access to certain areas.
Between 2010 and 2011 the school underwent a major renovation that preserved its original architectural elements while adapting spaces for modern learning needs. This balance between preservation and contemporary functionality makes it a notable example of thoughtful building renewal.
