The lecture offer the most important general cultural and historical material of German (partly Austrian and Czech) history, but especially useful information for teachers of German in elementary school. Lectures are held in German and students learn the most important German cultural-historical terminology. The aim of the lecture is not to burden the students with unnecessary facts, but to provide information from Central European history that is important for teachers of the humanities in elementary school, with special emphasis on interesting causal relationships and linguistic as well as cultural-historical contexts that facilitate the understanding of this information. The lecture is abundantly accompanied by pictures, maps and other illustrative materials.
After completing this discipline, students are familiar with the basic milestones in the history of Germany (and partly Austria), understand the context and are able to speak about history in German.
