German courses in Köthen

Begin or continue your language education in a historic Saxony-Anhalt city known for its classical music legacy when you register for German courses in Köthen. Students can learn about Köthen's unusually rich ancient history – and practice their German – at the Prehistoric Museum, a collection of locally-found artifacts stretching back to the Stone Age. Köthen's most famous historic contribution, however, stems from the famous music J.S. Bach composed in the city during the eighteenth century. Students interested in Bach's life here in Köthen can explore the city's fully-restored castle, which features a Versailles-style Hall of Mirrors and Baroque-style rooms where some of Bach's most popular secular music was first performed. Köthen also hosts an annual Bach Festival, during which some of the top musicians in the world come to perform Bach's best pieces in the city where he lived and worked. Aside from Bach's influence on local culture, students at a German school in Köthen might be interested in learning about the town's role in the establishment of homeopathic medicine. Students can visit the former residence of Samuel Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy, to learn all about this historic branch of medical science. Immerse yourself in the German tradition of creative and intellectual excellence when you make Köthen the site of your language education.
