Göttingen, the city of science
Göttingen is a smallish, but very charming city. It is located in the south of Lower Saxony and very central in Germany. Göttingen is a typical German university city with 30,000 students, who make up a quarter of the population. Many famous scholars have taught here, from the Brothers Grimm to Max Planck and Werner Heisenberg. The Georg-August-University can be proud of more than 40 Nobel Prize winners. The Old Town with its half-timbered houses is worth seeing and very cozy. Impressive churches, beautiful town houses from the late 19th century, venerable university buildings and the Old Botanical Garden from 1736 characterize the cityscape.
The heyday of Göttingen as a trading hotspot and Hanseatic city can be felt at every corner. Education, research and science are characteristic of Göttingen. Four institutes of the Max Planck Society, the German Aerospace Center, the University, a private University and the University of Applied Sciences and Arts contribute to Göttingen being a city "that creates knowledge".
German courses in Göttingen
I used to find learning German really difficult and I tried lots of different things. But on the language course at the Goethe-Institut, I suddenly started making rapid progress.
