Hohe Carlsschule (Akademie)

Hohe Karlsschule ("Karl's High School") was the strict military academy founded by Karl Eugen, Duke of Württemberg in Stuttgart, Germany. It was first founded in 1770 as a military orphanage, but then converted into a military academy in 1773 for the duke. Politically the duke was quite unimportant and with this school he wanted to enhance his prestige.
