Lycée Fustel-de-Coulanges

Lycée Fustel-de-Coulanges, Historic high school in France

The Lycée Fustel-de-Coulanges is a prestigious secondary school located in Strasbourg, Alsace.

Jesuits founded a royal college here in 1685, after Louis XIV annexed Strasbourg, to teach Alsatian pupils in French and the Catholic faith. From 1795 to 1802 a central school occupied the classical buildings. Napoleon's 1804 imperial lycée took them over, making it one of France's oldest lycées; it was the city's only boys' lycée until 1920 and was renamed for Fustel de Coulanges in 1919.

The school bears the name of Numa Denis Fustel de Coulanges (1830–1889), who taught history at the University of Strasbourg from 1860 to 1870; it took this name on 22 November 1919. Its ABIBAC section prepares students for a French and German baccalaureate, and Latin and ancient Greek are still taught.

The school stands in the old town at the foot of the cathedral, beside the Rohan Palace and next to the Grand Seminary, on Place du Château. It is a working secondary school, so the buildings are not open to visitors; the classical facade and the 1929 listed status can be seen from the square.

The building was listed as a monument historique in 1929, not 1990. Its classical architecture dates from the 17th century, when Louis XIV authorised the Jesuits to open a royal college beside the seminary in 1685.
