Foundation
Like other schools at the time the Goethe-School could not avoid Gleichschaltung (Nazification). In 1933 Ott was de facto replaced by Guido Oeß who had taught at the school since 1914, and been a Nazi Party member since 1929. Ott was formally dismissed in 1934. During World War II, the school was again used as accommodation for various organizations. It was severely damaged in 1944, by a series of allied airstrikes: especially the ones on 26/27 September and 4 December 1944.
