Regensburg
Regensburg (UNESCO World Heritage, 150,000 inhabitants, 25,000 students), one of the most beautiful
and vibrant cities in Germany, lies on the river Danube, at its northernmost point, close to the Bavarian
forest.
Regensburg, the largest medieval city in Germany, hosts a large number of street festivals and other
cultural events every year. Old and young alike gather in the cosy and friendly city centre.
It takes just an 1¼ hours to get here from the Munich airport. You can take a direct train from the terminal
or book a Shuttle Service that takes you directly to your adress.
Horizonte
Our school lies right in the middle of the historical city centre. We offer our students
• a personal atmosphere
• qualified, experienced and committed teachers
• a communication-oriented, effective and state-of-the-art teaching methodology
• varied leisure time activities
• free internet access
• a library.
Accommodation
We suggest our self-catering dorm next door to the school (38 single and twin rooms). Please apply as
early as possible, because it is often fully booked months in advance.
You can also choose homestay with breakfast or half-board.
Due to the often late confirmations of the National Agencies, we cannot always guarantee your favourite
type of accommodation.Learn German in Regensburg – since 1986
