==History==
Södra Latin has a rich history, as its predecessor ''Södermalms Pedagogia'' employed its first headmaster as far back as in 1654. In 1820 it became a [[trivialskola]] and in 1879 it was merged with the southern part of [[Stockholms gymnasium]], its new name being ''Stockholms högre allmänna å latinlinjen fullständiga läroverk å Södermalm''. The school changed its name multiple times through the years until it decided upon its current one in 1971.

The structure was conceived in a way that would allow daylight to directly illuminate all rooms and corridors inside it, with 21 classrooms having been built in total. Typical of the design - in addition to the monumental orange-red brick facade - is a semicircular assembly hall placed centrally in the school's building plan. The last renovation took place in 1996.

Södra Latin, officially Södra Latins gymnasium, ("Southern Latin" in Swedish) is an upper secondary school ("gymnasieskola"), situated in Södermalm, Stockholm.[1] The current school building was inaugurated in 1891.

History

[edit]

Södra Latin has a rich history, as its predecessor Södermalms Pedagogia employed its first headmaster as far back as in 1654. In 1820 it became a trivialskola and in 1879 it was merged with the southern part of Stockholms gymnasium, its new name being Stockholms högre allmänna å latinlinjen fullständiga läroverk å Södermalm. The school changed its name multiple times through the years until it decided upon its current one in 1971.

The current school building was designed by Per Emanuel Werming[2] and opened in 1891 (its twin building Norra Real having opened a full year earlier). The structure was conceived in a way that would allow daylight to directly illuminate all rooms and corridors inside it, with 21 classrooms having been built in total. Typical of the design - in addition to the monumental orange-red brick facade - is a semicircular assembly hall placed centrally in the school's building plan. The last renovation took place in 1996.

Södra Latin was a boys-only institution until 1961.
