    História administrativa

    In 1865, Isaac Hellmuth founded the London Collegiate Institute which changed its name two years later to Hellmuth College, or Hellmuth Boys’ College. Hellmuth Boys’ College provided accommodation for 150 boarders and offered academic and commercial subjects that would prepare young men for military and commercial careers. The property of the Boys’ College was bounded by Wellington Street, St. James Street, Waterloo Street and Grosvenor Street in London. When the Hellmuth Boys’ College failed, Isaac Hellmuth converted it into the University of Western Ontario hoping to offer faculties in Divinity, the Arts, Law and Medicine. The Hellmuth Boys' College closed in 1877 and the building was later demolished in 1895, but the faculties survived through the University of Western Ontario.

    História administrativa

    Hellmuth Ladies’ College was founded by Isaac Hellmuth in 1869, four years after the opening of the Boys’ College and was inaugurated by HRH Prince Arthur. The Ladies’ College was devoted to the study of arts and sciences and was located on Richmond Street North, just south of Windermere Road on the hill overlooking the Thames River. Hellmuth Ladies' College closed in 1899. Since its closing, the building served as a convent and orphanage. It stood until 1976, when it was demolished.

    História biográfica

    Isaac Hellmuth was born in 1817 into a Jewish Family in Poland. Hellmuth was training to be a Rabbi, like his father, until his conversion to Christianity in the early 1830’s during his time at Breslau University. He moved to Canada in 1844 and became an ordained priest by 1846. Hellmuth moved to England for a short period of time, but returned back to Canada and was introduced to the township of London Ontario by Benjamin Cronyn (Bishop of Huron). Isaac Hellmuth was the founder and sole proprietor of both Hellmuth Boys’ College and Hellmuth Ladies’ College in London, Ontario. He served as Chair on the boards for both schools. In collaboration with the Association of the Professors and Alumni of Huron College, Isaac Hellmuth also actively pursued the assembly of an official university in London Ontario. This endeavor was successful in 1878 when the senate for the new Western University of London, Ontario purchased Hellmuth Boys’ College and their property.
