Deutsche Schule Istanbul (English: German School of Istanbul, shortened as DSI), with formal Turkish name Özel Alman Lisesi (English: Private German High School) or İstanbul Alman Lisesi (English: German High School of Istanbul) or simply Alman Lisesi (English: German High School) is a private international high school in the Beyoğlu district of Istanbul, Turkey.[1] It is responsible to both the Federal Ministry of Education and Research of Germany and the Ministry of National Education of Turkey.

It was established in 1868 as German and Swiss Citizens School Based upon Equality Principle, to serve to the German-speaking community in the city. In 1871, a building near Galata Tower was built for the school. The building took serious damage during the 1894 Istanbul earthquake, therefore, in 1897, the school moved to another building which is still being used by the school. After a few years, the school also started to accept Turkish speaking students also. In 1918, after World War I, the school was closed and the building was used by the occupation forces. After the declaration of the Republic on Turkey in 1923, the school was opened again in 1924. In 1925, it moved back to its actual building. It was closed once again in 1945 because of Turkey's political position against Germany during World War II, and the building was used by Beyoğlu High School for Girls. In 1953, the building was given back to Deutsche Schule Istanbul and the school has used the same building since then.

Every alumni of the school gets an opportunity to take a matriculation exam to get an Abitur diploma. Alumni with the Abitur diploma are able to apply for any university in Austria, Germany or Switzerland. Deutsche Schule Istanbul is one of the two educational institutes in Turkey that has rights to give this diploma, along with the Istanbul High School.

History

[edit]

Between 1867 and 1868, there was an attempt to establish an educational institute for the German-speaking community in Istanbul by unifying with the German Protestant Community School (German: Deutsche Evangelische Gemeindeschule) which started to serve to the German Protestant community in the city after 1863. But due to a disagreement of these two sides, the attempt failed.[2] On May 1, 1868, the German School Administration Society founded a school called German and Swiss Citizens School Based upon Equality Principle (German: Paritaetische Deutsche und Schweizer Bürgerschule) for the German-speaking community in Istanbul. It was located in Kumdibi Street of Beyoğlu and started on service on May 11.[3][4][5] The classes were given by two teachers in a rental building, with 24 students.[6][3] The school also had a separate, section in order to tutor the commercial field (German: Bürgerschule).[5] It adopted social equality principle and was educating without any bond to any religion or sect. The first principal of the school was Adolf Engelkind.[7] After a while, Swiss people started to attend to the school community, and in 1871, a building near Galata Tower was built for the school.[6][2] The school moved to the new building on August 28, 1872, and on December 1, 1872, Protestant community members also joined to the school which caused to the closure of the German Protestant Community School.[8]

On May 31, 1882, a kindergarten entered into service in the same building.[9] The building was seriously damaged after the earthquake on July 10, 1894, which caused the requirement to search for a new location for the school.[10][6] In the first years the school was accepting only German-speaking students. In 1879, Bericht von Felix Theodor Mühlmann, the principal, the preparatory school which allowed the registration of non-German-speaking students.[4][11] The construction of the new school building -which is the current one- started in June 1896, with the support of master architect Kapp von Gültstein and the Ottoman Bank Director Wülfing. On September 14, 1897, the school moved to the new building which contained 15 classes and a conference hall.[12] The official license for the school was issued on January 9, 1897.[13] The German Emperor Wilhelm II, during his visit of Istanbul in 1898, also visited the school and gave it the license to issue the German high school diploma, which made Deutsche Schule Istanbul the first school that was granted the license to issue the German high school diploma outside of Germany.[4] The total number of students between 1893 and 1903 was 600, by 1916, the number of students was 1,000.[6] In 1903, the two-storied section of the school building was built.[14] By the order of the Ottoman government the school was issued a new license on December 27, 1911, with which it was henceforth considered to be at the same level with Ottoman high schools (idadi).[4][15] The total number of students was 600 between 1893 and 1903,[14] and by 1916, the number of students reached to 1,000.[16] After World War I, the school was closed and the building was used by the French occupation forces as barracks.[6] During that period, almost all the inventory of the school was destroyed.[6]

In November 1924, the school was re-opened on Polonya Street (now Nuruziya Street) in a rental building.[4][17][18] A kindergarten was also opened at this building, but was closed later on November 30, 1924.[19] On January 1, 1925, the kindergarten started to operate again only for the German-speaking community.[20] On September 1, 1925, the school moved back into the current building.[6][20] In 1944, after World War II, the school was closed again.[21] The building was returned once again to the Deutsche Schule Istanbul in July 1953, the education resumed on October 1.[22][23] In 1959, a few renovations and developments were made, a sports hall and a music room were added to the building.[24]
