Schloss Krumbach International School

Schloss Krumbach International School is a co-educational boarding school (Grades 7- 12). Located in a beautiful 13th Century castle, the school is designed to accommodate a maximum of 100 students.

Our school is small enough to have a truly bespoke academic offering to each individual student but large enough to offer the finest of challenges and opportunities both within and outside the curriculum.

We provide high-quality international education in English, two international diploma programmes (IB DP and A-Levels), a range of extracurricular activities and sports, an innovative bilingual system of studying (English and German throughout Grades 7-9), diverse co-curricular day trips and a unique student leadership system.

At Schloss Krumbach International School, we create our own civic society. In this interconnected community, students learn to share rights and responsibilities, while building networks of trust and positive reciprocity through cooperation. This educational approach fosters creativity and allows students to effectively discover for themselves what they’re truly interested in through trial and error. Perhaps more importantly, it also gives them a head start on developing essential professional skills by teaching them to work as a team for the collective good of their small society. This lesson couldn’t be more relevant given the environmentally and politically turbulent times we live in.

Our school is new, yet it stems from centuries-old teaching traditions. We are writing our own history, boldly and in style.

For many centuries, Schloss Krumbach was an integral part of the local ecosystem – it is a dearly loved and greatly respected place in Austria. Now it is a thriving international school, the only institution in Austria to host students at a real-life castle while offering both IB DP and A-Levels as high school diploma options.

At Schloss Krumbach International School, we provide young people with the freedom to develop as unique individuals, while instilling a sense of social and political responsibility.

Our school is no playground. We expect our students to be learners, doers, and friends. Every child HAS the right to remain a child for their time at school.

We believe in that with our whole organizational heart, and work towards it with everything we can.

Discover yourself by working together! This motto above is deeply embedded in our school life, from academic honesty policies to our relentless focus on teaching and learning where we track and analyze student progress and development in detail so that we are constantly striving for excellence and improvement.
