Frankfurt - Germany

German courses for adults in Frankfurt

Frankfurt stands on the banks of the River Main and is the centre of Europe´s economy and currency. Once a vital inland port and centre of trade, it is now Europe´s largest financial centre after London.

For many, Frankfurt is a city of sky scrapers. They have given Frankfurt the epithet, “Mainhatten”. A closer look reveals a metropolis of many charms; the houses are picturesque and many have been restored in the city centre. The unique “Museum Mile” along the banks of the river, which have become an altogether pleasurable zone for the flaneur, including cocktail bars and garden restaurants, invite you to enjoy extensive strolls and delicious local food and drinks.

The part of Frankfurt called “Sachsenhausen”, where the school is located, is said to be the most elegant district of the city. Actually, it has two parts: The old section is where you amble along narrow cobblestone streets amidst tiny gabled houses. This is where you will find pub after pub.
