Since 1992, the school has once again been operating as a Gymnasium. The school has a focus on natural sciences. Students have the opportunity to work on interdisciplinary projects in their free time and participate in competitions such as „Jugend forscht“. On the annual „Day of Science“, lecturers from universities in Brandenburg, Berlin, and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern give talks on scientific topics.

The Marie Curie High School in Wittenberge (Brandenburg) was founded in 1895 as a private higher school for boys and moved into the main building in Sandfurttrift in 1900.

The Wittenberg Elbe riverbank promenade has transformed from an industrial harbor area into a modern recreational spot. It connects historic buildings, like the renovated main customs office, with green spaces and offers views of the Elbe. After extensive redesign, it now shapes the city's new image as the "Gateway to the Elbe Valley". The area around the promenade was closely linked to shipping and industrial development (nearby sewing machine factory).

Founded in 1895 as a higher private boys' school, it developed over the years into an important educational institution in the region. Established in 1895 as a private boys' school, the school was transferred to municipal ownership in 1898. The main building (Haus 1) was erected between 1899 and 1900 according to plans by Wittenberge's city building councilor Friede Everhard Bruns. In 1900, the newly built building in Sandfurttrift was occupied, which was designed in the Neo-Gothic style with exposed brick facades. Today, the Gymnasium focuses on scientific subjects and has been a member of the association of Mathematical-Natural Science Excellence Centers at Schools (MINT-EC) since 2000.
