The Regionalverband Saarbrücken plans the comprehensive renovation, including reorganization and extension, of the Theodor-Heuss-Gymnasium in Sulzbach, which was unanimously decided by the Regionalversammlung on 03.07.2025. The planned construction measure is intended for the site of the Theodor-Heuss-Gymnasium in Sulzbach. The origins of the school date back to 1877. The former private secondary school was taken over by the municipality of Sulzbach as a public school in 1906. This year is considered the founding date of the school. The current Theodor-Heuss-Gymnasium was built in sections in reinforced concrete frame construction with reinforced concrete ceilings around 1966-1970. The entire complex is a two- to four-story building with a flat roof and is classified as a special building in building class 5. The existing building consists of several interconnected, multi-story building parts (A - F/G) on different levels in the hillside area. The school houses a rented apartment in the former caretaker's apartment in building part C. Building parts A and D have partial basements. The gross floor area of the existing building is approximately 7,548 m². A feasibility study by the building authority examined the extension in connection with a comprehensive renovation of the Theodor-Heuss-Gymnasium. The current planning represents an economical and sustainable solution and also creates the possibility of temporarily relocating students during the construction period. The construction measure is to be implemented during ongoing school operations, during school holidays, and in individual sections to be determined. This may result in the need for interim measures within the building itself, in adjacent building parts, or in temporary containers, which are required as compensation areas. The possibility of dividing into construction sections must be taken into account. In the construction sequence, it is planned to complete the extension and the science rooms in a 1st construction section. Subsequently, the rooms in the lower floors can be used for partial relocation of the students and the freed-up areas can be renovated. The associated work must be taken into account and is part of the overall construction measure. To keep the period of disruption and construction time as short as possible, a proposal for implementing the measure must be submitted. Despite indicating a possible construction site, the design options with room for change and simultaneous careful integration of the new building into the existing environment should not be restricted. New approaches to investigation with efficient design planning are welcome. The attached space program defines, as far as design-related, for the extension as well as for the restructuring measures in the existing building, the future necessary rooms of the entire ensemble new and old building after extension and their size and room relationships. The arrangement of the rooms is largely freely selectable with particular attention to functional and fire protection aspects. The size specifications are to be checked by the planners for their requirements and correctness. The existing structure and the extension new building should be interlocked and function as one school building. The functional areas should be mapped through reorganisation in an economical solution. Further details can be found in the project description and the further documents.
