Located in the state of Nordrhein-Westfalen, Cologne, or Köln as it’s known in German, is Germany’s fourth largest city. With its strategic position on the Rhine, the Romans were quick to settle here and lay the foundations for what remains an important city of culture and commerce today. Cologne is at the forefront of Germany's economy, has a multicultural population, and enjoys worldwide renown for its museums, fine art collections and great architecture. One of Cologne’s most famous buildings and tourist attractions is its stunning Dom (cathedral), which dominates the skyline of the pretty old town – an area full of traditional bierkellers and lively bars and restaurants.
Cactus works with two schools in Cologne. Both enjoy a central location, one close to Rudolfplatz and the other on Hansaring, a short public transport ride from the old town. We offer German courses for adults, including General German courses, Individual German classes, Combined German courses and Intensive German study courses. We can also arrange your accommodation in Cologne with a German host family, in a shared apartment or in a hostel to ensure that your stay is as comfortable as possible.
