History
Munchausen was founded in 1774 as a royal colony and colonists had 20 points. The colony was named after Ernst Friedemann von Munchausen (1724-1784), who was from 1763 to 1764 Prussian State and Minister of Justice. When the first colonists houses it was wooden huts with thatched roofs.
Each colonists site received twelve acres of arable, four acres of meadow and one acre yard with garden land. As this was not enough, the colonists were given more land, so they eventually owned a plot of 28 acres and 72 square rods. However, since these were partially sterile sandy soil and acidic peat soil in the area, the colonists were forced to perquisites. These included shoemaking, weaving, daily work and Klasterschlagen.

At this time the school was one of 32 students.
