Kindergarten
Kindergarten is a preschool educational approach based on playing, singing, practical activities such as drawing, and social interaction as part of the transition from home to school. Such institutions were originally made in the late 18th century in Germany, Bavaria and Alsace to serve children whose parents both worked outside home. The term was coined by German pedagogue Friedrich Fröbel, whose approach globally influenced early-years education. Today, the term is used in many countries to describe a variety of educational institutions and learning spaces for children ranging from 2 to 6 years of age, based on a variety of teaching methods. History Early years and development In 1779, Johann Friedrich Oberlin and Louise Scheppler founded in Strasbourg an early establishment for caring for and educating preschool children whose parents were absent during the day.

Standardized Railway Station (Württemberg)
The standardized railway station was a type of station constructed primarily on branch lines for the Royal Württemberg State Railways. Between 1892 and approximately 1903, 59 such stations were constructed in Württemberg in three different versions. History The original intention of the government of the Kingdom of Württemberg was to leave the construction of branch lines to private companies. However, when only a few companies took up the offer, a law to enable the construction of the first state branch line was passed in 1887. The line in question, the Schiltach-Schramberg railway, ran from Nagold to Altensteig and was followed soon afterwards by the Swabian Alb Railway from Reutlingen to Honau and the Kocher Valley Railway from Waldenburg to Künzelsau. However, the state had limited funds and relied on financial contributions from local authorities along the route; the villages, however, had limited spending power and budgetary restrictions were extended to railway stat ...

Royal Württemberg State Railways
The Royal Württemberg State Railways (''Königlich Württembergische Staats-Eisenbahnen'' or ''K.W.St.E.'') were the state railways of the Kingdom of Württemberg (from 1918 the ''People's State of Württemberg'') between 1843 and 1920. Please see also the main article History of the railway in Württemberg. Early history As in many other states of the German Empire, there was increasing debate about how to improve transport communications across the country from about 1825. Private interest groups were formed and, from 1834, the state also worked on the question, giving experts the task of finding suitable solutions. After years of preparatory work, it was decided to set up a railway network, the main lines of which would be built by the state. The Railway Bill of 18 April 1843, established the legal foundation for the construction of the railway network; this date is seen as the birthday for the ''K.W.St.E.''. The law expressly envisaged that the construction of branch r ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
