Herzlich Willkommen!
The  German Language and Culture Institute offers
German language classes to adults who want to learn
German in an alternative setting and for a variety of
reasons. Some of these reasons include:

  • To connect with German-speaking relatives in
    Germany or elsewhere
  • To travel to countries where German is spoken
  • To discover  personal cultural heritage
  • To challenge the mind and keep it fit
  • To refresh the German  learned many years ago

Courses are scheduled at times that are considerate of
the adults who work.  

Classes are small (max. 15 learners) to ensure quality
of instruction and a pleasant and relaxed learning
experience.

Ronneburg Castle in the county of Ronneburg /Hüttengesäß in Hesse.
The castle was first mentioned in a historical context in 1258. The
Ronneburg is also historically linked to the religious
Amana Colonies in
Iowa / USA. In 1842 Christian Metz, the founder of the Amana Colonies
gives the signal for emigration during a meeting on the Ronneburg
Castle. About 800 women, men, and children leave Hesse and settled
first in Buffalo, NY and later move to Iowa.
