Abstract

The article traces the history of one of the oldest elite educational institutions in Königsberg — the Löbenicht Real Gymnasium, which was attended by engineers, bankers, architects, administrators and others famous in Königsberg and beyond. The evolution of the status of the gymnasium is traced, starting from the parochial school of Löbenicht to the leading real gymnasium in East Prussia, which was attended not only by the inhabitants of the region, but also by other countries, including Russia. Changes in the educational programme of the school, the organisation of the educational process, and the quality of the teaching staff are analysed. The article may be of interest to researchers of the history of Königsberg-Kaliningrad, students of history faculties, researchers of the history of pedagogical science, including the history of pedagogy in Germany.
