The WGE campus is kept as natural as possible. The Schulgarten for example is a big lawn surrounded by many green trees. There are also three soccerfields in the Schulgarten, and the members of the Neigungsfach Gartenarbeit are keeping plants on a garden with greenhouses for their studies. On the right of the soccer fields goes a long grassy path beside a field, with a wooden table at the other end. There is also a long connection of paths in the woods around the soccer fields. At the main entrance is a big outdoor place where many students hang out in the breaks. In the building near the main entrance is the mensa and the Mediothek. The secretariat and teacher's room are also near the main entrance. On the far side of the entrance are the two gyms. The bigger gym can be divided in 1:2 and holds a soccer field and a basketball court.
Buildings
The gymnasium's main building is largely composed of the Altbau, built in the 1970s. Then there is the Neubau, which is much smaller, at the end of the building. It was built in the 2000s. The Unterstufe are studying in the Neubau.
Projects
