Learn German in Cologne: Social Life
All students are encouraged to make the most of their time in Cologne by participating in the guided excursions and activities offered by the college.
The school offer a range of activities; city tours, visits to museums, concerts, beer garden evenings, visits to current events in Cologne and the surrounding area.
You also have the opportunity to discover the famous bars of Cologne, the “Kneipen”, and its beer “Kölsch”, visits to the city’s museums, cathedral and, in the summer, barbecues in one of the many Cologne city parks, boat trips or visits to the region’s vineyards with the other language students.
Activities outside of the College:
Cologne Cathedral is in the heart of the city. It stands on a flat-topped hill; excavations on the site have uncovered remains of a roman heathen temple and early traces of a Christian church. This is definitely a sight you must see whilst in Cologne.
There are several museums in Cologne to look around, the most spectacular museum is the Museum Ludwig, between the cathedral and the Rhine. This museum exhibits 20th century art; here you will find art by the classic moderns, expressionists as well as works of Picasso.
