The Lycée Malherbe is a secondary school in Caen, France.
History
Since its foundation, Caen has always been an important cultural centre. The
Abbaye-aux-Hommes became the seat of a secondary school
which was to replace the Écoles Centrales du Calvados, de la Manche et de l’Orne. This new school opened on 20 July 1804 with one hundred students.
It is not before the 19 August 1892 that the establishment was named Lycée Malherbe, in honour of
Lycée André Maurois in Deauville where the Baccalauréat
exams were moved to. The Lycée Malherbe moved from its prestigious premises in 1961 to move to its new location, along the racecourse, in the prairie. The old school's buildings are now home to Caen city council.
