Humboldt-Institut German Courses

Our German courses in Bad Dürkheim are held at the St. Christophorus youth hostel, which is situated above the center of Bad Dürkheim in a quiet residential area. The school premises offer manifold opportunities for sports and leisure activities as well as a wonderful view of the town and the Rhine Valley below. Our students are accommodated in the same building in which the classes take place, so they can conveniently reach their lessons without leaving the campus. The rooms (with three or four beds) are partly equipped with en-suite showers and toilets, others have shared facilities. We carefully choose the students who will share a room with each other. We take care to match roommates who have a comparable German language level and are of similar age, yet speak different native languages. This way we encourage them to speak and practice German with each other outside of the classroom. Boys and girls are housed separately. Our students receive three meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner) as well as a snack daily. Laundry service is offered to all students free of charge once a week for their personal laundry. Sheets and linen will be provided and changed regularly. We ask you to bring your own towels for daily use.
