Gutenberg Gymnasium
A memorial to the victims of the Erfurt massacre

The Erfurt massacre was a series of shootings that happened at the Gutenberg Gymnasium in Erfurt, Germany, on April 26, 2002.

A boy that had been expelled from the school, Robert Steinhäuser, was the person who did all the shooting. In anger, he came into the Gymnasium, and shot dead 13 teachers, two students, and a police officer. After a teacher caught him and put Robert in an empty room, Robert shot and killed himself.

In total, 18 people were killed that day.
