Oberhambacher Schulhaus

Oberhambacher Schulhaus, Historic schoolhouse in Hambach an der Weinstraße, Germany

The Oberhambacher Schulhaus is a protected corner building (Winkelbau) on the Deutsche Weinstraße in the Oberhambach heritage zone of Hambach. It was built in 1724, remodelled in the Neoclassical style in 1822, and after a fire in 1909 raised with a mansard roof and reworked in the Heimatstil. Nearby stand the St. Jakobus church, the Grohé manor house and the Catholic parish house.

The building was erected in 1724 as an L-shaped schoolhouse for Hambach. In 1822 it was remodelled in the Neoclassical style. The school moved to a new building further south along the Wine Route in 1876, and after a fire the former schoolhouse was raised with a mansard roof and reworked in the Heimatstil in 1909. From 1935 it housed the municipal administration, from 1969 the local council, until 1983.

The building's name refers to Oberhambach, the upper part of Hambach an der Weinstraße, where it stands directly on the Deutsche Weinstraße within the Oberhambach monument zone. Since the 2000s an information board titled "Oberhambacher Schulhaus" has stood at the building, giving passers-by an outline of its history. The property is now privately owned.

The building is privately owned and no longer serves as a school or administrative seat; the municipal administration moved back to its previous building in 1983. It stands directly on the Deutsche Weinstraße in the Oberhambach monument zone, next to St. Jakobus church, the Grohé manor house and the Catholic parish house. An information board mounted during the 2000s gives a short history of the building.

The building lost its school function in 1876, when the school moved to a new building further south along the Wine Route. From 1935 it housed the municipal administration, replacing the old town hall, and after Hambach was incorporated into Neustadt in 1969 it served as the seat of the Ortsbeirat until 1983. It is now privately owned.
