Helmstedt University Days 2026: lecture series in the Juleum
The long-standing University Days recall the Academia Julia and bring scholarship and debate back to the historic Juleum.
The Helmstedt University Days draw on the legacy of the Academia Julia, which shaped the town as a major university from 1576 to 1810. In 2026, lectures, panels and readings once again take place in the Renaissance hall of the Juleum, which with its Hausmann's tower remains the landmark of Helmstedt to this day. Renowned speakers address topics from history, society and science. The event series is regarded as a cultural flagship of the university town, linking its academic past with the present.
