Fasori Gimnázium

"secondary school on the tree-lined avenue"; fasori=tree lined, gimnazium=secondary school), also known as Fasori Evangélikus Gimnázium ("Fasori" Lutheran Secondary School), official name: Budapest-Fasori Evangélikus Gimnázium, is a famous secondary school in Budapest, Hungary.

It is noted, together with Minta and the Piarist gymnasiums, for a number of talented students.

It was originally situated at Deák Ferenc square, but moved to Sütő utca in 1864, and finally to its current location in Városligeti fasor ("Tree lined Avenue to the City Park") in 1904, receiving its present nickname.

In the first decades of its existence it operated as a German-language institution, and in 1847 Hungarian became the language of instruction [1] It had to close in 1952 under Communist pressure.
