History.
As a school building.
The foundations of the building were laid in the 1870s. The first school year was in 1882. The revolutionary Goce Delčev taught at the school for two years in the period 1894–1896. Dame Gruev, Petar Pop Arsov, Todor Lazarov, Miše Razvigorov, Dimitar Mirasčiev also taught here. In 1912, the school employed 7 teachers who taught to 151 male and 100 female students. During the Balkan Wars, the school was turned into a hospital. During World War I, the building was used for military purposes.
During the Interwar Period, the school was a primary school from first to fourth grade. Before the start of the April War in 1941, the school was set on fire and almost completely destroyed, leaving only the foundations and some walls. Immediately after the arrival of the Bulgarian rule, construction works were carried out and the new version of the building was slightly different in appearance from the old building. Enrollment for students even began in September of that year.
In the period 1946–1949, the facility was seat of the Teachers School. Later, the Štip High School was situated here. In recent years, as a school institution, the facility was a school building within the "Vančo Prke" Elementary School.
As a rectorate.
The building was renovated in order to become the seat of the Rectorate of the Goce Delčev University.
