Kurfürst-Maximilian-Gymnasium, Religious and educational complex in Burghausen, Germany

The Jesuitenkolleg combines a gymnasium, monastery spaces, and educational facilities within a three-story building featuring early baroque architectural elements.

Founded in 1629 by Prince-Elector Maximilian, the institution started as a Jesuit college before transitioning to Cistercian management following the dissolution of the Jesuit order in 1773.

The Great Hall on the second floor displays restored ceiling frescoes depicting Marian themes and serves as a venue for ceremonies and concerts.

The gymnasium maintains modern educational facilities while preserving historical structures, including the Music Hall with its early Rococo stucco from 1731.

The building's west wing, initially housing Jesuit quarters, later functioned as military barracks and a courthouse before integration into the school in 1959.
