From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tingvallagymnasiet (Tingvalla upper secondary school) is an upper secondary school in Karlstad, Sweden, offering education programmes both in the social and natural sciences, as well as the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme.
[edit] History
Construction of the school was begun after Karlstad was granted its Royal Charter in 1584, it was most likely to have been completed in 1586, then as a two-story wooden building. It was then, as all other educational facilities dedicated to the teachings of the church. Following the great fire of 1752, the location of the school was changed to its current position.
Following the building of the main building in stone, several new additions have been made, integrating the school premises with several blocks in central Karlstad.
