With the Treaty of February 24, 1746 on the sale of the imperial summer residence to the Society of Jesus was also the establishment of a school - the Theresianum - determined. The foundress was Maria Theresia, under whose aegis the education plan was fixed and the economic support secured. The Jesuits did great things for the new college, and the ban on their order in 1773 was a major setback. After the dissolution of the Theresianum by Joseph II, it owes its re-establishment in 1797 Emperor Franz II. The pupils of the Collegium came from all areas of the monarchy. Modern foreign languages and sport were strongly emphasized in school and boarding school. During the turmoil of the war, the Theresianists were expelled by the Nazis, and only after the withdrawal of the Soviet occupation troops in 1955, the huge complex of buildings was quickly restored. In the jubilee school year 1995-96 there are more than 600 pupils, who live in a day care center and boarding school in the tradition of the "foundation school", and at the same time open-minded and future-oriented educational path.
