School Profile Overview
The Kaiser-Karls-Gymnasium (KKG) in Aachen is the oldest Gymnasium in the imperial border city, founded in 1601 by the Jesuits and steeped in Aachen's Charlemagne heritage. Situated next to the RWTH Aachen University main building, KKG combines historical humanistic values with international European openness.
Benefiting from its tri-border location (Dreiländereck), the school places a strong emphasis on modern and classical languages (including Dutch and Spanish), active exchange programs with Belgium and the Netherlands, and research collaboration with RWTH engineering departments.
