Schule Mendelssohnstraße
Schule Mendelssohnstraße, State school and heritage monument in Bahrenfeld, Hamburg, Germany
Schule Mendelssohnstraße is a primary school and protected building complex in Bahrenfeld featuring separate pavilion structures, an assembly hall, and sports facilities. The layout separates different learning areas and functions across the site, creating an open campus arrangement.
Architect Paul Seitz designed this school in 1953 as part of Hamburg's postwar school infrastructure rebuild. The project represented a new school type intended to enable flexible learning and cross-classroom interaction.
The modernist design shaped the neighborhood's appearance from the 1950s onward and shows the era's belief in open, functional school architecture. The pavilion arrangement reflects the conviction that learning should happen in bright, airy spaces.
The site offers visitors a good overview of the school layout with its various pavilions and outdoor areas. The open, connected structure makes it easy to navigate and provides direct insight into the architectural features.
The complex originally housed an indoor swimming pool that was transferred to Hamburg's sports authority in 2009 for public use. This shows how school infrastructure was conceived as a resource for the entire community.
