Tøxen's School

Tøxen's School, located in Køge, Denmark, is a historic former school building established in 1859. The school was founded through a generous donation from Thomas Tøxen, a wealthy merchant, who aimed to enhance educational opportunities in the town after the closure of the Latin school in 1776. The building is notable for its architectural significance and is listed as a heritage site. In the mid-1980s, Tøxen's School merged with another local institution, becoming Sct. Nikolaj Skole. Visitors can appreciate the school's historical context and its role in the educational development of Køge.
