Landfermann-Gymnasium (short "LfG") is situated in the city centre of Duisburg, Germany. It is a municipal grammar school for boys and girls, one of the oldest schools in Germany.

Founded before 1280 as Schola Duisburgensis, the school was transformed into a Latin School in 1559, which today's Landfermann-Gymnasium acknowledges as its official founding year. The school prepares for the celebration of its 450th birthday in autumn 2009.
