Cultural Activities in Munich

Learning a new language also means learning about a different culture and way of life. That's why we organize a wide range of activities to allow you to obtain deeper insight into the German way of life and give you a chance to get to know Munich and the surrounding countryside.

All German intensive courses are complimented by an interesting and extensive leisure program that includes films, theatre, museums and exhibitions, visits to historical castles, sport activities, and bicycle and city tours.

We also offer guided visits to:

Chiemsee Islands

The castle on the Men's Island is one of the biggest tourist attractions in upper Bavaria.

Salzburg

The city of Salzburg - and especially its historic city centre - is in fact one of the loveliest places in Europe, winning international acclaim in 1997 when it was designated a world heritage site by UNESCO.

Dachau

«Dachau - the significance of this name will never be erased from German history. It stands for all concentration camps which the Nazis established in their territory» (Eugen Kogon)

Beer gardens

The tradition has spread all over Germany, but you won't get the genuine thing anywhere else but in Munich: Biergärten. In earlier times when brewers were desperate to keep their beer cool during the summer, they stored their barrels in cellars and planted chestnut trees above them, since their wide branches and large leaves keep the place nice and shady. King Ludwig I granted the brewers the right to sell their beer on the spot - but not food. Since then, the people of Munich have flocked to these gardens to drink fresh beer straight from the barrel, bringing along their own food. Among the best-known and most aesthetically pleasing of Munich's beer halls is the Hofbräuhaus, famous as much for its beer as for its over-the-top Bavarian atmosphere.
