The city Heidelberg
Heidelberg’s old town, the castle – you will find history at every turn. The city that is home to Germany’s oldest
university (established in 1386) looks back on 800 ye-ars of history. During this time, the city has attracted poets like Goethe, Eichen-dorff and Mark Twain, famous artists like Turner, Fohr and
Trübner were inspired by its colorful impressions, and composers like Brahms,
Schumann and Carl Maria von Weber translated the
triad of river landscape, old town and castle into music. Apart from its historical and cultural aspects, modern-day
Heidelberg is also a center for
science and commerce: In-ternational and German com-
panies like IBM, ABB, Heidel-berger Druckmaschinen or the European telecommuni-cations company Eurescom underscore the importance of Heidelberg. Heidelberg is known as a
center for biotechnological research and pioneer for in-
formation technologies and environmental strategies. It is home to the Academy of the Sciences, the College for Jewish Studies, the German
Cancer Research Center and 5 Max-Planck-Institutes.
Today, Heidelberg has about 150,000 inhabitants and 20,000 students, making it one of the ”youngest” cities
in Germany. In the evenings, people meet in the bars and cafes on and off the “Hauptstrasse“, one of
the longest pede-strian zones in Europe (1.7 km),
where you will find international cuisine, from Chi-nese and Indian food to European a n d s o u t h -American speciali-
ties.

position and its
entire surroundings
is, one may say, quite

Our leased apartments have 5-6 fully furnished single rooms, students will share two bathrooms and one kitchen.

The monthly rent amounts 270 EUR to 350 EUR including all utilities and must be paid at least 4 weeks in advance. The rooms are only available to the participants of the Heidelberger Pädagogium and for the duration of the course.
Room reservations must be made by signing the app. box on the registration form. The security (80 EUR), the course (310 EUR) and the advance payment for the rent (235,- EUR) have to be credited to our account at least 4 weeks before the course starts. Because we are liable to pay the costs for the room in advance, you have to notify us of cancellation or postponement four weeks prior to arrival. After that period, reimbursement is not possible. On moving out, the rooms have to be impeccable and clean swept.

nise other transports (e.g. a taxi) but they will have to carry these extra costs themselves.
