Thuringia International School - Weimar

ThIS is a not-for-profit K-12 IB World School of 340 students in the beautiful German state of Thuringia. Our school is a modern, Bauhaus inspired collection of buildings in the historic city of Weimar. Located just 2 km from the city centre which was home to Goethe, Schiller, Liszt, Klee, Kandinsky and Walter Gropius, the eponymous head of the Bauhaus University. Weimar is within easy reach of Leipzig, Berlin and Prague and is a very liveable and culturally rich city, surrounded by some of eastern Germany's most attractive walking, biking and wine growing regions.

ThIS is a remarkable school for teaching couples and teachers early in their careers and for those with families looking for a home with a heart. We are a smaller school that believes in talking to and knowing each other, in making connections and in collaborating with those in the building and in our vibrant city. Weimar itself has a population of 65,000.

Weimar sits halfway between the cities of Erfurt, the state capital, and Jena. Together the three cities form the central metropolitan area of Thuringia, with approximately 500,000 inhabitants.  We are not Germany's largest or highest paying school, but we are aim to be one of the most interesting, collaborative and open schools in Germany, and our host city is part of that quality of life and work.
