Located in Oberursel, TIMS offers families a practical and accessible location close to Frankfurt and the surrounding Taunus towns. The school also benefits from its own garden, playground and nearby fields for outdoor play and learning. With the S5 S-Bahn line nearby, families enjoy direct, convenient connections into central Frankfurt.
Families, teachers and children gathered in the TIMS garden to celebrate the end of the school year with a relaxed community picnic.
Founded in 1973 by Father Joseph Beck, TIMS has grown from a small international classroom in Oberursel into the school it is today — this is our story, decade by decade.
