Inscription.  
Hier stand bis zu ihrer Zerstörung im Jahre 1943 die Solitudeschule. Sie wurde 1877/78 als zweites Feuerbacher Schulhaus eingerichtet, weil die Kapazität der Volksschule in der Sartoriusstraße nicht mehr ausreichte. Durch die Industrialisierung war die Einwohnerzahl deutlich gestiegen, sodass die Solitudeschule damit als sichtbares Zeichen des Aufschwungs in Feuerbach entstand. Als Ersatz für die zerstörte Schule wurde 1952 an einem geeigneteren Platz die Hohewartschule in den Dienst gestellt. Den Platz der ehemaligen Schule nimmt nun ein Wohn- und Geschäftshaus ein.

Solitudeschule im Jahre 1909

(English Translation)
The Solitude School stood here until it was destroyed in 1943. It opened in 1877–1878 as Feuerbach’s second school because the existing elementary school on Sartoriusstraße no longer had enough space. Industrialization had greatly increased the population, and the Solitude School became a visible symbol of Feuerbach’s growth. The Hohewart School opened at a more suitable location in 1952 to replace the destroyed school. A residential and commercial building now occupies the former school site.
