European School Marie-Curie-Gymnasium Neuss

The Europaschule Marie-Curie-Gymnasium in Neuss was founded in 1969 as a municipal grammar school in the Nordstadt district of Furth. It is housed in two buildings, both of which are listed buildings.
The MCG was founded in 1969, initially as the 2nd Municipal Girls' Grammar School. Since there were no grammar schools in the north of the city at that time, the Jostenallee location in the Fürth district was targeted in the medium term. After a four-year journey through various parts of the city, the planned location was finally occupied in 1973. The profile of the school has been strongly shaped to this day by the commitment of the first headmistress, Christel Weyhe, who studied chemistry. On her initiative, the grammar school was given the name Marie Curies in 1971 as well as a predominantly scientific character, which is evident from the introduction of the dual-qualification vocational training as a chemical-technical assistant in 1975. This is a special educational offer of the school, which is still very popular today. The Weyhe era also saw the introduction of coeducation at the Marie Curie Gymnasium in 1974.
