400 Jahre Erasmus-Gymnasium: Eine Schule, die sich immer wieder neu erfindet

Zum 400-jährigen Bestehen des Amberger Erasmus-Gymnasiums hat Peter Seidl eine umfangreiche Festschrift erstellt. Er beleuchtet spannende Episoden aus der Schulgeschichte. An der Namensgebung war damals sogar die Amberger Zeitung beteiligt.

von Andrea Mußemann

Das Erasmus-Gymnasium in Amberg wurde 1626 gegründet. Vor etwa 100 Jahren zog die Schule vom Jesuitenkolleg in das eigens dafür erbaute Gebäude im Archivviertel um, dessen Ansicht sich bis heute kaum verändert hat. Das Bild stammt ungefähr aus den 1950er Jahren, wie das Auto im Vordergrund verrät.
