Cusanus Hochschule

Cusanus Hochschule für Gesellschaftsgestaltung is a private non-profit university situated in Bernkastel-Kues, in the Moselle valley, close to Luxemburg and France. While officially recognised in May 2015 as one of nine universities in the German state of Rhineland-Palatinate, it was founded in February 2014 by a group of academics, students and citizens. One of the institutions involved in the founding of Cusanus Hochschule has been the Kues Academy for the History of European Thought. Cusanus Hochschule remains independent of economic, political and religious interests. Hence, it is not affiliated with any religious denomination. The founding presidium consisted of Harald Spehl, Silja Graupe, Harald Schwaetzer and Frank Vierheilig. The patron saint of Cusanus Hochschule is Nicholas of Cusa, a German philosopher, theologian, jurist and astronomer, who is considered as one of the first German proponents of Renaissance humanism.
