The DFG Freiburg was established in 1972 (1972).[4] Final year students take the French-German Baccalaureate, a diploma recognised by France as equivalent to the Baccalauréat, and by Germany as equivalent to the Abitur.[5][6] For the final three years, students choose between literary, social, and natural science branches (L, ES and S) as is usual in French lycées.[7]

In 2017, on the occasion of the Treaty of Rome's 60th anniversary, the school's student representatives published a pro-European opinion piece saying "don't mess with the European Union".[8][9]

Amenities

The campus consists of an old building with an annex and a gym, a new building, a sports field, and a pavilion.[10]:53 The old building was designed by Konrad Kuhn[11][12]:68 and built in 1976. It stands on the former site of the municipal plant nursery, which moved to the Mundenhof in the west of Freiburg in the early 1970s.[11]

The roofs of the old and new building are equipped with photovoltaic solar panels with a combined nominal power of 55 kWp.[13][14] The panels were erected by students and teachers,[15] and belong to a registered association (e.V.) incorporated in 2002.[16] The association also installed a small wind turbine on the new building.[17][18]

The school offers rooms in its boarding school in Günterstal,[2] which had 64 residents in 2017.[10]:47 Around 100 students live across the French border in Alsace and attend school using a bus organised by parents.[19]
