History
There had been a school in the town of Késmárk already in 1383. The building was built between 1774 and 1776. It has a rich library of 150 thousand pieces. The first floor was added in 1820, the second in 1865. There was a lyceum in the building between 1787 and 1852 with faculties of theology, law and philosophy besides the 8-class grammar school. The German grammar school existed until 1944, afterwards the Czechoslovaks violently expelled the German inhabitants, the ancestors of whom founded the town.
