When the school first started in 1949, it had a different name. It was called the Jönköping Technical Secondary School. This name showed its main focus on technical education.
What's in a Name?
The school got its current name, Erik Dahlberg Secondary School, during the 1966–67 school year. It was named after Erik Dahlbergh, a famous Swedish military engineer and field marshal from the 1600s. He was known for his skills in building and planning.
The school buildings themselves were not all built at once. They were completed step by step over many years, from 1961 all the way to 1994. This means the school has grown and changed over time.
