Enjoy vibrant cultural attractions in a charming historic setting when you develop and perfect your language skills with German courses in Lüneburg. Because this city is home to Lüneburg University, students beginning or continuing their German education here will blend right into the thriving academic population. Unlike many cities in North Germany, Lüneberg's historic city center was spared during World War II. Spend an afternoon exploring this historic district, whose numerous well-preserved buildings make the area feel like an open air museum. Get a glimpse at this region's storied industrial past – and practice your German – at the German Salt Museum, a collection of exhibits housed on the former premises of Lüneberg Saltworks that traces salt's economic importance back to the Middle Ages. For a taste of the city's cultural side, get tickets to a performance at any of the numerous theaters located here. Perhaps best of all, students attending classes at a German school in Lüneberg are just a short commute from Hamburg, Germany's second-largest city. Take a walk along the Hafen Hamburg and stop into the shops and restaurants located along this busy port. Hamburg visitors might also like to enjoy a pint at a pub in the city's famous Warehouse District. Whether you'd like to marvel at the artifacts on display at Hamburg's International Maritime Museum or simply enjoy a fresh pint at one of Lüneberg's two small inn breweries, this German city is the perfect place to improve your language skills.
