Berufliche Schule für Wirtschaft Hamburg-Eimsbüttel, Commercial vocational school in Eimsbüttel, Germany
The Berufliche Schule für Wirtschaft is a vocational school in Hamburg-Eimsbüttel offering business training across two locations. The facility includes classrooms, specialized spaces for practical instruction, and equipment designed to support commerce and administrative education.
The school building at Schlankreye was constructed between 1928 and 1929 by architects Walter Hinsch and Erwin Deimling. It stands among Hamburg's first vocational schools, reflecting the growing importance of professional training in the city during that period.
The school's name and structure come from a 2015 merger: the Staatliche Handelsschule Schlankreye (H 3) and the Berufliche Schule für Wirtschaft und Steuern (H 12) were combined on 1 August 2015 under the official abbreviation BS 26. H 12 had taken over the Abendwirtschaftsschule (AWS) in 2003, and evening teaching continues in the Fachschule für Wirtschaft, where students earn the title Staatlich geprüfter Betriebswirt (Bachelor Professional in Wirtschaft).
The school is easily accessible by public transport and located in a well-connected part of the city. Note that this is an active educational institution, so any visits should be arranged in advance with the administration.
The Schlankreye building, erected in 1928/29 by architects Walter Hinsch and Erwin Deimling, is one of Hamburg's oldest vocational schools. The institution has been led by Frank Hölting and, in the 2025/26 school year, counted 1,824 students, 120 teaching staff and 10 non-teaching employees.
