Abstract
The aim of this article is to present some interesting descriptive geometry exercises which were commonly taught at secondary schools and used during the graduation examinations in the 2nd half of the 19th century and at the beginning of the 20th century. However, the same exercises may seem very difficult for present time students.
We will also have a look at the secondary school system and graduation exams in connection with descriptive geometry in the mentioned period.
