Jena-Lobeda, 21.04.2026. The Thüringer Gemeinschaftsschule (TGS) Kulturanum in Jena-Lobeda invites you to an interactive „Festival of Open Doors“. On Friday, April 24, 2026, the teaching team, students, and parents will present the special school concept in a practical way.
- What: Festival of Open Doors
- When: Friday, April 24, 2026, 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM
- Where: TGS Kulturanum, Karl-Marx-Allee 7, Jena

Experimenting and Experiencing
Instead of a classic open house day, the Kulturanum is organizing a real „Festival“. From 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM, the school grounds in Karl-Marx-Allee will be transformed into a discovery zone. At various stations, visitors have the opportunity to try things out and experiment. This allows prospective students and their parents to gain a direct impression of the working methods and daily school life at Kulturanum. The afternoon is organized jointly by the school team, students, committed parents, and external partners.
Learning Together According to the Jenaplan
Since the 2012/13 school year, the community school has been accompanying young people on their way to an independent and self-determined life. The pedagogical concept is strongly oriented towards the Jenaplan. The focus is not only on the pure transfer of knowledge, but above all on cultural education, a diverse acquisition of competencies, a strong orientation towards the needs of the students, and lived inclusion.
Background: Education in the Lobeda District
The TGS Kulturanum is located in the center of Jena-Lobeda. The district, which was created in the late 1960s and 1970s as a large new housing development, has undergone significant architectural and infrastructural changes in recent decades and now houses modern educational landscapes. Visitors to the festival are recommended to arrive by public transport, as parking spaces in the immediate residential area can quickly reach capacity on event days. The tram stops are excellently connected to the campus in Karl-Marx-Allee within walking distance.
