History

In 1870, the town councillors decided to establish the State High School of Sciences. Initially, teaching was in Hungarian and German. The new school building was built between 1878-79. In 1919 it became the State German Lyceum, but until 1927 there was also a Hungarian section. In 1941 the lyceum was closed. From 1941 to 1944, the building housed the German Girls' Lyceum, which was renamed "Nikolaus Lenau" in 1942. From 1952 it was a boys' lyceum and from 1952-1955 the Workers' University. The German Lyceum was re-established in 1948, first in a different building, and then moved back to its own building in 1955.
