Hegau-Gymnasium (German: Hegau-Gymnasium) is a gymnasium in Singen in the very south of Baden-Württemberg in southern Germany. The school is named after the extinct Hegau volcanic landscape.
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".
