Mission Statement

It's not the fault of the wood if it wakes up as a violin.

Arthur Rimbaud

The establishment of clearly defined guidelines is essential for the success of any reputable educational institution. In our institution, it is based on a wealth of experience from over 150 years of school history, linked with our appreciation for tradition, combined with creative ability, innovation and competence. The needs of our students and the requirements of the professional companies guide us in our way of action.

In line with this concept, an educational institution emerged in Mittenwald which stands today for a broad and solid education, a high level of quality and focused technical knowhow. Come for a visit and see for yourself.
