History of the Conservatory of Strasbourg
The school was created using funds given to the city of Strasbourg by arts patron Louis Apffel in 1839.
The conservatoire's first day of classes began on 3 January 1855.
It is indeed this considerable amount of the legacy donated by Louis Apffel which allowed the municipality to establish a conservatory which also emanated a symphonic orchestra, historically born the second in France after Paris.
