Bavarian International School gAG als Arbeitgeber

The first record of a manor house in Haimhausen goes back as far as 1281. In ancient times, the castle in Haimhausen is said to have been located on the hill next to the church. Presumably on 5th august 1504, the castle fell victim to the fire with the village in the Landshut war of succession (Upper Bavaria against Lower Bavaria). The building was rebuilt, but itself burnt down during the 30-years-war (1618-1648).

The counts Franz Ferdinand of Viepeckh von Haimhausen, having been given the land as a gift from the Bavarian royal family, commenced the building of the central section of the current Schloss in 1660. Count Franz Ferdinand created with the Munich court painter Andreas Wolf (1652-1716), whose bust is in the Munich hall of fame at the Bavaria, the central building with the outside staircase. According to the taste of the time, it was rebuilt as a moated castle down the Amper.

The new Primary School building, with 24 additional classrooms, has been completed in December 2006, and in January 2007 moved into their new quarters.

The playground for the City Campus is in the backyard, where students enjoy climbing, cycling and playing games.

The bright and spacious room of the Library at our City Campus easily attracts students to stay & learn in a positive and calm environment.

The IB Art Exhibition is one of our annual highlights, which utilizes our historic Schloß as a unique gallery space. This exhibition is the culmination of a two-year program in which advanced art students at the IB DP level present their work. 

Visitors of this exhibition have a chance to speak personally with the student artists about their creative process and the resulting works.

At BIS we are constantly striving to improve our competitive sports programmes. We compete regularly in sports competitions against other schools in the region. We also participate in the German International School Sports Tournaments (GISST) and the European Sports Conference (ESC).
