Immerse yourself in the historic tradition and stunning natural setting of this charming city when you register for German courses in Iserlohn. Nestled into the hilly Sauerland region of Germany, Iserlohn offers a unique urban cultural scene in a lush, rural setting. Get a taste for local history – and practice your German – when you explore the Maste-Barendorf factory complex, a collection of buildings offering artists' workshops, a charming café and the German Needle Museum. The Alexanderhöhe, which contains Iserlohn's park theatre, also plays an important role in the town's cultural tradition. The town's annual marksmen's competition, known as the Schützenfest, takes place in the Alexanderhöhe. Students can see the city from a new perspective by climbing atop the Danzturm, Iserlohn's landmark historic tower that offers spectacular aerial views of the valley and its surrounding areas. Students at a German school in Iserlohn should also venture outside city limits to discover the natural beauty of the Saurerland region. Descend into the depths of the Dechenhöhle and marvel at its famous collection of stalactites and other geological formations. Travel to the Sellersee, Iserlohn's nearby lake, and indulge in some swimming, rowing or mini-golfing. There are also dozens of other hiking and cycling trails perfect for outdoor enthusiasts. Give your German education a lovely green backdrop when you make this "Forest City" the site of your language education.
