Enchanting capital city of the Alsace, on the Rhine River dividing France and Germany; at once ancient (with its still inhabited medieval quarter and its university founded by John Calvin) and modern (the seat of the Council of Europe and European Court of Human Rights).
Only one half hour from the Black Forest, one hour from Heidelberg, two hours from the Swiss Alps, three hours from Luxembourg, and with the TGV (train grande vitesse or high speed train), only 1 hour and 50 minutes from Paris.
The Academy sessions are held in the medieval Petite France district next to the Saint Thomas Church. Academy accommodations are next door to this historic church where Mozart played the Silberman organ, and Martin Bucer was the pastor for a number of years (he was a contemporary of Martin Luther and John Calvin). In 1908 Albert Schweitzer inaugurated what became an annual organ concert at Saint Thomas to commemorate the death of J.S. Bach. John Calvin preached and led services at Saint Nicholas Church in Strasbourg, just a stone's throw away from where the Academy conducts its academic activities.
