    In 1388 the university was founded by the city council, and in 1798 the French who moved into the city converted it into a central school. The university was not re-established until 1919. The forerunner was the commercial college founded in 1901. In 1929 the new university was built.
    In front of the main building is the sculpture of Albertus Magnus (~ 1200-1280 in Cologne), created by Gerhard Marcks in 1956. From 1248 Albertus headed the "Studium generale" of his order in Cologne. The university was founded in 1388 in this tradition.
