The bad news from the government Bureau of Stuttgart, came at the end of January with the Post. The Style: The Authorities English. The Figures clearly. The message: The city of Geislingen an der Steige the well into the surrounding well-known and popular Michel mountain to make-Gymnasium-tight. Otherwise, you would be threatened with Bankruptcy.
A budget with millions of dollars for a renovation of the Pannenbaus was “not approvable” because the city would thus be hopelessly over the debt.
“for Us, it was clear that we had to act immediately”, told the Student body, Franziska Reinelt (16). In the wind a good 100 posters had been painted: “Save the MiGy,” “We are the MiGy”, “Give our MiGy a Chance”. Thus, many of the roughly 600 students took to the streets, often together with their parents.
“And we have informed the media,” says Co-spokesman of Cedric Riemer (16). Radio 7, the SWR and antenna 1 reported with the O-tones of the Demos. The high school is experiencing a wave of solidarity. The appropriate protest song Ex-student Ricky Gairing wrote: “ruin Michel mountain. It is not going to be easy, and maybe even a little tricky. But what makes this city, the MiGy.”

From the “Pride and joy” to millions of the grave
For Geislingen this story is almost as painful as the breakdown airport BER for the German capital. Only that it comes per capita is probably even more expensive. Because, The mirror in front of expected””: “to put the cost on the number of inhabitants of the cities, should any of the 3.7 million inhabitants of Berlin in 1890, to pay every one of the approximately 28,000 Geislinger up to 2500 Euro.”
the Michel Berg Gymnasium was once “our Pride and joy,” says Director Heiner sower (63). “A lighthouse project, a perfect eco-construction with exemplary energy balance, large rooms, light-flooded architecture, a wonderful library and state of the art technology in the rooms.” The was 2016. Well, there was praise, even envy, as the completely renovated and modernized Gymnasium has been re-opened.
high school was a lot of effort to ecologically
renovated and Bitter at the threat of closure is for the sower, “that the town Council had once provided a Grand vision of the future and a lot of money for an ecological redevelopment of the old school building. This was exemplified in times of climate change.” The MiGy was rebuilt under the direction of the (now 80 – year-old) architects who had designed the first building for a lot of money from an Energy guzzler to a construction with Autonomous solar energy supply.
Two years everything went well. Then water retention in spaces between the glass roof discovered. Surveyors, sounded the Alarm: the main carrier of the roof structure were torn down. The energy extraction have proved to be “oversized”. Solar panels generated much higher temperatures than planned, steel beams expanded.

on top of that, the firefighters discovered heavy fire protection problems. The energy-saving design of the facade with layers of glass and wood could erase hinder work. Walls had to be torn open, the Openings are covered with easily removable Plan. A Vorzeigebau was temporary, to a “ruined”.
closure of the school provisionally
averted While in court over compensation claims will be argued, is the future of MiGy uncertain. After all, a closure seems to be still in this year is now averted – thanks to the students and parents protests. On Thursday (20.2.) could give the Council the green light for the temporary continuation of the operation of the School until the summer of 2021. And after? “If no miracle happens, can afford the city, neither the reorganization nor the new MiGy,” said mayor Frank Dehmer (independent).
To the debate in three variants: demolition and new construction have been at the same location, the new building at the location of the around two kilometres away, Geislinger stone high school, as well as a “renovation of the renovation help”. Alone the cost of construction would be according to the municipality between 25 and 37 million euros. Sums could muster Geislingen in the face of lower trade tax revenue only on new debt what is the government Bureau is prohibited.

For a glimmer of hope of Baden-württemberg’s Minister of culture, Susanne Eisenmann (CDU) made it. “I can assure the country that we can Geislingen not hang, and organizational and, where appropriate, financial support will provide”, had a meeting with the Lord mayor know.
But with how much money the country might be able to help, or even should, says currently no one. First, the Geislinger should do your homework and make concrete proposals for a solution put on the table, the Ministry of culture. Dehmer sees it that way: “On sums of money, you can speak at the earliest, when it is clear what needs to be done and how big the gap is to close it.”
