Deutsche Schule Barcelona (DSB), also known as Colegio Alemán de Barcelona, is a distinguished German international school founded in 1894, located in Esplugues de Llobregat in the Barcelona metropolitan area. One of the oldest international schools in Spain, DSB provides a comprehensive German-language education from kindergarten through to the German Abitur (university entrance qualification), serving students aged 3 to 18. The school integrates the German national curriculum with strong Spanish and Catalan language instruction, ensuring students achieve high bilingual proficiency.
