Our roots
Silkeborg Højskole was founded by FDF. The children's and youth organisation based upon the Danish established church forms our hinterland. So the Christian view of life is part of our school. We have roots, but of course you are free in relation to our view of life.
We do not make any specific demands as to who you are and what you believe in. On the contrary, this is a place where you may breath freely. By meeting the viewpoints and experience or other peopleyou gain a deeper understanding of your own self and get an insight into the world we live in.
Silkeborg Højskole sees itself as a school deeply rooted in the folk high school traditions founded by Grundtvig. First and foremost this means that the human being and human life are decisive factors. The folk high school as a school is an experiment: a school without exams - but still a school. Students come here to learn and become wiser, but the idea is that willing hands make light work.
