Gustav-Langenscheidt-Schule

Gustav-Langenscheidt-Schule is a public integrated secondary school in Schöneberg housed in a substantial building at Belziger Straße with late 19th-century architectural features. The structure displays typical Berlin school design from that era, including spacious classrooms and a well-organized layout for teaching.

The building was constructed from 1897 to 1899 by architect Paul Egeling and opened in 1900 under the name Hohenzollern-Schule. The school took its current name in 2010 following institutional reforms that gave it a new direction.

The school is named after a publisher who built his reputation nearby through language education. This connection shapes how the institution approaches teaching today with its emphasis on multilingual programs.

The school is conveniently located near multiple bus stops and Schöneberg S-Bahn station within walking distance. Visitors can easily reach the campus using public transportation since the area has good transit connections.

The publisher Gustav Langenscheidt, after whom the school is named, operated his publishing house in the immediate neighborhood and shaped the area's language-focused character. This geographical proximity made the 2010 renaming a natural tribute to local heritage.
