History

The school was founded in 1851 as the Kaiser Franz Joseph Staatsoberrealschule (state secondary school) on the initiative of the citizens of Linz and the writer and state school inspector of elementary schools for Upper Austria, Adalbert Stifter in Steingasse.[2] An expansion was completed by autumn 1852, allowing for the enrollment of all grades. By the 1890s the building's facilities in Steingasse had become inadequate; a new building was finally approved 1903/1904, and opened in 1909 on the corner of Fadinger Strasse and Bethlehemstrasse.

The school was renamed Bundesrealgymnasium Linz Fadingerstraße after the Austrian Republic was founded in 1918.
