Study German Courses in Heidelberg, the capital of the Kurpfalz region that lies in the picturesque valley of the Neckar River, south of the Odenwald, and is characterised by a particularly mild climate. In the course of history Heidelberg's beauty has attracted many poets, painters and scientists.
In the early 19th century the town became the most important centre of German romanticism. Intertwined with that age are the poets Arnim, Brentano and above all Eichendorff. Founded in 1385, the University of Heidelberg, the oldest in the German-speaking world, still attracts a lot of students from all over the world.
Countless monuments bear witness to a tumultuous history. If you walk up to the Castle you will pass through a gate into the garden, formerly world-renowned as "Hortus Palatinus", which was laid out at the beginning of the 17th century. From the terrace of the garden you will have a magnificent view of Heidelberg and of the Philosophenweg (Philosophers' Way) on the other side of the Neckar. In the courtyard of the Castle you will be able to admire buildings from different ages, as well as the Grand Terrace and, in the cellar of the Castle, the Great Vat. Choose German Courses in Heidelberg, you won't regret it!
