The new building of the German-French high school in Altona is ready!
There is good news for the school community in Hamburg-Altona: the newly built German-French high school is about to move in. After four years of intensive construction, the modern building was handed over in November 2025, and school operations are scheduled to start at the beginning of 2026. The school family is preparing for the move at full speed. The furniture and organizational steps are currently underway to bring the students into their new, light-flooded learning rooms. An open day will take place on January 9, 2026 from 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., where interested families can explore the new rooms. A move for most year groups is planned for the beginning of the second half of the school year developmentcity.de reported.
The new school building not only has the quality but also the size to act as a central element of the planned Struenseestrasse campus. The new building is conveniently located at the Königstraße S-Bahn station, not far from the Elbe. The spacious interior spaces, which include a central atrium, invite you to communicate and linger. The equipment includes numerous specialist rooms, a library and open learning areas and is implemented with high-quality materials and a subtle color scheme. The outdoor facilities are also designed to be inviting: a schoolyard with playing fields, a 100-meter running track, and climbing and fitness activities bring exercise and joy to the students.
A comprehensive educational project
An important element of the new campus is the planned six-field sports hall, which will be built parallel to the new school building and should be completed in time for the move. According to information on the website bildungsbau.hamburg The Struenseestraße campus will house a total of three schools and offer space for around 2,200 students. This promotes a connection between school and community.
The renovation and redesign in Hamburg is part of a larger initiative that has existed since 2011 and has set itself the task of modernizing and improving the school buildings in the Hanseatic city. Investments of around 8 billion euros are planned by 2028 to implement around 1,000 renovation and 620 new construction projects. According to the Hamburg.de The average condition of school buildings has already improved significantly: from 3.53 in 2013 to 2.47 in 2023. This development shows that the city's commitment to high-quality school education remains consistently high.
The new German-French high school - a symbol of these ongoing efforts - will open up new opportunities not only for the students but also for the entire school community and help create a modern and inspiring place of learning.
