The school was founded in 1900 as the Städtische Höhere Mädchenschule. In 1962 it moved to Jacobi Street (Jacobistraße). In 1967 boys were admitted for first time. So in 1968 the school was renamed Humboldtschule with the implementation of the mixed-sex education. At the end of 2005, the class wings and the administrative building were widely redecorated and modernized. Furthermore, a small cafeteria with 120 places was furnished. In school year 2005/2006 the school duration at the Humboldtschule was reduced from nine to eight years. So those students who started in grade 5 in that year or later get their Abitur after twelve school years in total, rather than thirteen years for students who started in grade 5 before that year.
