Came across this fantastic old place wandering the streets looking for somewhere and anywhere of interest!!
Couldn't find out too much about it, except it was founded in 1596 from the legacy of Johnnes Mylius and the Fugger family. It was opened in 1619 as part of the university, and specialised in teaching German to resedential students form Luxemburg, hence the name. In 1755 it was entirely renovated by the state, and spent the 19th and 20th centuries as a secondary school fot local children, closing some time around 2000. It's future is very uncertain, I have no idea who owns it however the stat recently made it a listed building and are in the process of emergency rerpairs to windows and gables. It is currently a building site....
On with the pics
View from the road, I couldn't get back far enough to get a good shot
Inside the gatehouses you are greeted by an impressive main building
Some fantastic windows remain (at the moment..)
A nice row of urinals
Fancy a game???
The builder's map inside the door
A nice industrial coatrack
Merry Christmas and Peace To All in 2011!!!!
