Bayreuth Bayreuth is a large town in Northern Bavaria on the Red Main river in a valley between the Franconian Jura and the Fichtel- gebirge mountains. The town‘s roots date back to the year 1194 and Bayreuth now has a population of about 72,000 citizens and about 11,000 stu- dents at its university. The town is world-famous for its annual festival “die Bayreuther Festspiele” at which operas by the 19th century German composer Richard Wagner are performed. Located in the heart of nature, Bayreuth is renowned for its variety of sports and cultural activities throughout the year. Campus Universität Bayreuth AudimaxUniversity Campus of Bayreuth Bayreuther Festspiele A specialty the region further has to offer is its art of beer- brewing – nowhere in the world can one find such a regional proximity to breweries where the famous Bavarian beer is produced. The University Campus – often refered to as a Campus within nature – is built similarly to campuses of American Universi- ties. Every building is within a few minutes walking distance. Students can easily engage with each other – through summer schools and their regular studies.
