Ehem. Günthersburgschule
Ehem. Günthersburgschule stands in Frankfurt as a school building shaped by Neobaroque and Jugendstil. Built in 1906, it presents an early twentieth-century design with a distinctive sandstone portal.
Gustav Schaumann designed the building with engineer R. Restle. It originally served as an elementary school for boys. The neighbouring Comeniusschule housed girls during the same period. Together, the two buildings formed part of Frankfurt’s wider educational expansion. In 1989, Frankfurt’s city council established IGS Nordend within these historic school buildings. The integrated comprehensive school serves pupils from grades five to ten, with every grade represented by 1996.
The Neobaroque sandstone portal gives the entrance its clearest visual detail. Its carved stonework sets the school apart from the surrounding streetscape.
