Prompted by the school's board, the city assembly decided to name
the specialised secondary school in Berlin's Prenzlauer Berg
district Tesla Oberschule.
The school mainly teaches future electrical engineers.
Nikola Tesla was born in Smiljan, a village 150km south of Zagreb,
in 1856. His inventions, of which the most significant were in
connection with alternating currents, revolutionised electrical
technology.
