Justus-Liebig-Schule, Secondary education institution in Johannesviertel, Darmstadt, Germany.
Justus-Liebig-Schule is a three-story building with separate areas for natural sciences, languages, and artistic activities in Darmstadt's educational district. The school features modern facilities including computer labs, art studios, a media center, and a library spread across roughly 7,500 square meters.
The building was founded in 1911 as Großherzogliche Oberrealschule zu Darmstadt and designed by city architect August Buxbaum. From 2018 to 2021, the school underwent major renovations to modernize its infrastructure.
The school maintains long-standing partnerships with institutions in France, Australia, and England that enable student exchanges and language programs. These international connections shape school life and create opportunities to learn about different cultures.
The school is located at Julius-Reiber-Straße 3 and is easily reached on foot from the center of Johannesviertel. Be aware that entry during school hours may require permission or advance notice, so visiting outside class times or checking ahead is advisable.
From 1942 to 1945, the building served as a transit camp for Jewish deportees from the region. A memorial plaque installed in 1991 reminds visitors of this dark chapter in the school's history.
