The school was founded in 1970 as the Staatliche Realschule Neu-Ulm-Pfuhl and was later named after Inge Aicher-Scholl, co-founder of the Ulm School of Design (HfG). Her sister Sophie Scholl was executed in 1943 for resistance against the Nazi regime. Inge Aicher-Scholl also helped establish the Ulm adult education centre (Volkshochschule).
The school honors Inge Aicher-Scholl, an educator who founded an adult education center after the war to make learning accessible to working people. The building represents a commitment to using education as a tool for building an open society.
The school is easily accessible by public transportation and located in central Neu-Ulm. Those interested in viewing the facility should contact the school in advance, as access is typically available outside of regular teaching hours.
The school is named after Inge Aicher-Scholl, co-founder of the Ulm School of Design (HfG), not after her sister Sophie. Inge and her siblings Hans and Sophie were part of the White Rose resistance circle; the school's name honours Inge's own work in education and design.
