Aalborg Cathedral School

Aalborg Cathedral School (Danish: Aalborg Katedralskole) is the oldest gymnasium in North Jutland. The exact date of foundation is not known, but historical documents indicate that Christian III of Denmark in 1540 gave the school a wing of the old Holy Ghost Monastery in Aalborg after the dissolution of the Danish monasteries. For many years the church was an integral part of the school but in 1814 it moved from the monastery buildings in Jomfru Ane Gade. In 1886-1889 the school moved to its current location in a newly built school in Sct. Jørgens Gade (orig. Saxogade), designed by Vilhelm Theodor Walther. The school was rebuilt during 1924-1926 by Einar Packness and expanded 1959-1960 by Leopold Teschl.
