Wonderful for resting and relaxing.

A great place that invites you to linger.

The Academia Nassauensis was founded in 1584. As a Calvinist institution, it never received university privileges. Until it closed in 1817, Germany's smallest university had trained 6,000 graduates in theology, medicine, law and philosophy. The most important student from 1611-13 was Johann Amos Comenius, one of the fathers of modern pedagogy and founder of didactics, the art of teaching. His main work bears the telling title Didactica magna. Comenius' teaching principles included learning by doing, observation before linguistic communication, mother tongue before foreign language, examples before words. Some of his principles are still used in teacher training today. Not only famous students, but also famous professors came to Herborn to study at the High School. The most important was probably its first rector, Johannes Piscator, who led the academy from 1584 until his death in 1625. The first Reformed Bible translation, which Piscator produced in 1602-04, was also produced during this period. It was the second complete Bible translation into German after the Luther Bible. As was common at universities at the time, Herborn also tried to find its own academic printer after the invention and gradual spread of the printing press. Christoph Corvin was hired for this purpose in 1585. He ran his Corvin printing works in the Paulshof, which quickly became one of the leading European publishing houses. Today, the buildings of the High School house the Herborn Municipal Museum as well as catering facilities on 700 square meters of exhibition space.

There is no view here, but it is a very nice place to rest, which offers a table and benches next to the pavilion itself.

The Hohe Schule is a jewel in Herborn.

Now a sturdy fence has been built around the property, so there is no more looking in from the inside.

Beautiful, unusual bench with wood carving and a very special "dangerous" spider. ... But it is protected 😂
