About
Dobrogean College of "Spiru Haret" is the oldest secondary/high school institution in Tulcea county. The institution was founded on November 14, 1883 as "The Royal High School for Boys". In 1897 it turned into a high school.
The first headquarters of the Gymnasium was the building built between 1864-1867 by Ahmed Rezim Pasha, the mutesharif of Tulcea district. The building was located a little below the current building C of the high school. In 1902, Spiru C. Haret, the Minister of Public Instruction, signs the act that mentions the construction works of the first premises of the first secondary school in Dobrogea.
In the period 1925-1926, from the public collection initiated by Constantin Motomancea (the director of the high school at the time), the current north body of the building was built, with C. Hârjeu as architect. Between 1926-1927, the central body was built, according to the plans of the architect Gh. Brătescu. Between 1970-1971, the south wing of the high school was also built.
It is good to know that in the years 1903-1941 the institution was called "Prince Carol High School". In 1971, it was named after the illustrious mathematician and Minister of Education Spiru Haret. Since 1996, the high school has been called Dobrogean College "Spiru Haret", being one of the most impressive buildings in the entire Tulcea Municipality.
