Want to begin or continue your German education in a lakeside city known for its youthful student population and charming natural setting? Register for German courses in Konstanz to discover why this city, located along the Swiss border, is beloved by residents and visitors alike. Like many German cities, Konstanz has an intact Altstadt ("Old Town") featuring an array of twisting alleyways and majestic medieval buildings worth exploring. At the heart of Altstady lies the famous Konstanz Cathedral, a massive stone church that dominates the city's skyline. This city is home to the University of Konstanz, a prestigious research institution, so students improving their language skills here will blend right into the thriving academic population. Aside from its typical urban attractions and amenities, Konstanz' waterfront location provides it with a uniquely beautiful outdoor setting. Spend a sunny afternoon admiring the sailboats while you stroll along Konstanz Harbor. Hop on a ferry and travel to nearby Mainau, the "island of flowers" that also houses Germany's largest butterfly house. Reichenau, the island on Lake Constance whose majestic Benedictine monastery was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is another excellent excursion available. Enjoy life on the lake while immersing yourself in German cultures and traditions when you develop and perfect your language skills at a German school in Konstanz.
