Contents Heidelberg - at the Heart of Europe

4 5


Over the years, Heidelberg’s beauty has drawn a number of poets, painters and scientists. In the early 19th century, the city on the Neckar became the most important centre of German Late Romanticism. Inextricably linked with this epoch are the poets Arnim, Brentano, Goethe and Eichendorff.

The Ruprecht-Karls University Heidelberg is the oldest university in Germany. In the QS World University Rankings 2011/2012 the University of Heidelberg was rated the best Ger-man university. In June 2012 the university’s elite status was en-dorsed through the Excellence Initiative of Federal and Regional State Governments.

Many monuments bear witness to the Neckar city’s diverse history. Sitting approximately 70 metres above the river Neckar, the city’s landmark, the elector’s castle, rises from the slope of Königstuhl, on its very own mountain. Its ruins are among one of the most impressive sights to behold on any tour of Germany. Visitors climbing up to the castle first pass through the gate into the famous “Hortus Palatinus” garden, created at the beginning of the 17th century. From the castle garden, there is a wonderful view of Heidelberg, including the Philosopher’s Walk, which lies on the opposite bank of the Neckar. Fascinating buildings that date back to a variety of epochs surround the inner court-yard. Situated in the Royal Wine Cellar is the world’s largest barrel, which was once filled with wine. It rarely failed to impress - except in the case of Perkeo, the barrel’s gnome-like guard. Once, when asked if he could drink the barrel dry, his answer was a nonchalant “Perché no” - why not? - which is how he came to earn his name.

A walk round the Old Town reveals outstanding ornamental facades and portals. The heart of the Old Town is the market place, with the church of the Holy Ghost and the grand renaissance house “Zum Ritter”. Leading away from the church of the Holy Ghost are many old alleyways lined with pubs and restaurants. Spanning the Neckar is the Old Bridge, one of the most beautiful

stone bridges in Germany. The wooded hills around Heidelberg cloak the city in a handsome green. The surrounding area, which includes the Neckar valley castles, the German wine route, ancient cultivated landscape along the Upper Rhine and the Odenwald mountains, offers a wealth of experiences waiting to be enjoyed. Proximity to Frankfurt and Stuttgart airports - just 80 and 130 km away respectively - means Heidelberg is easily accessible to its guests from all over the world.

The name Heidelberg also stands for a modern and world-class location for science and business. Thus, the tradition-steeped university, the Academy of Sciences, the German Cancer Research Centre (DKFZ), five Max Planck institutes, the European Laboratory for Molecular Biology (EMBL), the Print Media Academy of Heidelberger Druckmaschinen, the SAS Institute and several research centres belonging to international companies are all located in Heidelberg. Such a concentration of the sciences is unparalleled in Germany and forms the basis for a dynamic, science-orientated economy that elevates Heidel-berg - despite a population of just 145,000 - to its position as one of Germany’s leading economic centres.

Heidelberg is also one of Germany’s leading cultural centres, as demonstrated by the wealth of museums and theatres. Together with the neighbouring cities in the Rhine-Neckar metropolitan area (Mannheim, Ludwigshafen, Speyer, Schwetzingen, Worms, to name the most important), Heidelberg offers a large variety of cultural events of national significance: •Heidelberg Theatre Festival •Heidelberg Literature Festival•Heidelberg Spring Festival •Heidelberg “Stückemarkt” Theatre and Drama Festival•Festival of German Film •Mannheim Summer Mozart Festival •Heidelberg Castle Festival•Schwetzingen Castle Festival•Niebelungen Festival•International Schiller Festival •International Street Theatre Festival Ludwigshafen •Photography Festival Mannheim

Heidelberg, once the capital of the Palatinate and spiritual centre of Calvinism, lies in the lovely Neckar valley and is distinguished by its particularly mild climate.

F+U Academy of Languages

The school building offers a fantastic view of the Old Town and the castle and into the Neckar valley.

Today, the F+U Academy of Languages is one of the largest language schools in Germany. Every year, approximately 6,500 learners from approximately 120 countries participate in our language courses in Heidelberg. Thanks to its internationality, the school is a unique meeting point for other languages and cultures.

With 45 multimedia-equipped classrooms (up to 70 in sum-mer), 3 Internet rooms with 50 PCs, free Internet access and WLAN, and a central location in Heidelberg, the Academy of Languages offers everything to ensure language learning is an exceptional experience.

Several halls of residence with 280 rooms, apartments, a school-owned hotel and several host families offer year-round accommodation to learners arriving from all over the world.

Specialising in German as a Foreign Language, the F+U Acad-emy of Languages is one of the world leaders in the provision of German courses, whether in the form of intensive lessons in the mornings and afternoons, or extra-occupational evening courses.

As an international test centre, the Academy of Languages stands for exceptional quality in language teaching. Alongside the best-known assessments such as TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language), TestDaF (Test Deutsch als Fremd-sprache), and DSH (Deutsche Sprachprüfung für den Hochs-chulzugang, on behalf of the Mittweida University of Applied Sciences), the language institute offers the following exami-nations: Zertifikat Deutsch, Zertifikat Deutsch für den Beruf, TOEIC (Test of English for International Communication), LCCI (London Chamber of Commerce and Industry) exams, TELC (The European Language Certificates), ECDL (the European Computer Driving Licence), TestAS (aptitude assessment for international applicants for higher education) and OnDaF (online language assessment).

Through its partnership with the long-established Institut de Français IF2, the Academy of Languages is also a provider of nationally significant French courses. The IF2 licensed centre for the French DELF and DALF exams is located in the F+U premises.

The intensive and evening courses are offered year round and are attended by employees of international companies and re-search institutes such as SAP, Lufthansa, Heidelberger Druck-maschinen, Heidelberger Zement, Siemens, Daimler, NEC, Heipha, Brunel, BASF, EMBL, HITS, the DKFZ, Heidelberg University and many more businesses and scientific institutes.

Of particular significance is the Vocational College for Foreign Languages, established in 2004, which offers the opportunity to study full time towards the following state recognised quali-fications: FremdsprachenkorrespondentIn (Foreign Language Correspondence Clerk), EuropasekretärIn (European Secretary), WelthandelskorrespondentIn (International Trade Correspond-ence Clerk) and Translator. F+U is the only education provider in the country to offer state recognised vocational language training for Japanese. State recognition has also been awarded for Chi-nese, English, French, Russian and Spanish.

The F+U Academy of Languages offers a variety of internship programmes, including “Eurodys-

sée” and “Leonardo da Vinci”. These internship programmes give young people from approximately 40 European regions the chance to participate in a language course abroad in either another European

country or in Heidelberg, followed by a commercial internship.To complete its range of courses, the Academy of Languages also organises language tours.
