Rütli School

The Rütli School was a Hauptschule in Neukölln, Germany, one of Berlin's districts.

The Rütli School gave rise to a circle of resistance fighters in Nazi Germany, the most famous of which was Hanno Günther.

The Rütli School was closed down by the Nazis and served as a military hospital.

A new nursery, a youth club, sports and leisure facilities, workshops and an advice centre were added.

Some of the school's faculty "refused to enter their classrooms without a mobile phone they could use to call for help if they were threatened.

"[5] Reporters flocked to the school and filmed youngsters acting violent and throwing rocks.
