About Concordia Language Villages
Named one of Minnesota’s Best Summer Camps by Star Tribune readers for three consecutive years, Concordia Language Villages (CLV) brings language and culture to life in the beautiful North Woods of Minnesota. Each village is designed to reflect the culture it represents, creating an immersive environment where everything from the music played to the dishes used in the dining hall contributes to a rich cultural experience.
CLV’s mission is to inspire courageous global citizens. Our approach places participants in a grand simulation of a trip abroad, surrounding them with authentic cultural elements and thoughtfully designed learning experiences led by skilled language educators. Through our iso-immersion model, participants build language proficiency, intercultural competence, and a broader global perspective.
For youth in particular, traditional camp experiences—such as canoeing, campfires, and collaborative activities—are intentionally woven into the program to cultivate teamwork, empathy, leadership, and personal growth, all while supporting CLV’s mission of preparing engaged global citizens.
