History

edit

The school was founded in 1899. In 1934, the school was renamed Langemarck-Realgymnasium, named after the location of the World War I Battle of Langemarck. It was one of the earliest schools renamed in the era of National Socialism in Germany.[1] From the end of the war until Feb.25th, 1946, the school building was requisitioned by the French occupying forces. Today Hegau-Gymnasium has a so-called Abi-Bac section and boasts the title of "Partner School for Europe".
