University of Kiel

Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel is the full name of this university in Germany. It was founded in 1665 in order to train priests and government officials. It was one of the first universities to obey the Gleichschaltung in 1933 and removed many of the professors and students from the school. The university buildings sustained much damage during the war. The school was rebuilt at a different location with only a few of the older buildings housing the medical school. There were approximately 20 000 students enrolled in 2002.
