Place: Schoenstatt Marian School

The Marian School was founded by Father Kentenich on 1st October 1945. The blessing of the school building as it is today followed in 1961, which of course has been extended and modernized since then. After Father Kentenich’s return from exile, Christmas 1965, many conferences and talks given by Father Kentenich took place in the Marian School hall


 

“Education means to touch, awaken, capture, support and receive life…“ J. Kentenich 25.06.1962

 

Our symbol is a green wheel with five spikes.

Green is the colour of life,
Kentenich’s pedagogy leaves its mark on life.
The five spikes represent the five guiding starts of the Kentenich pedagogy.
The pedagogy of trust, movement, ideals, attachment and covenant.
