About Wartburg Theological Seminary

In a river city along the Mississippi, Wartburg Theological Seminary offers a close-knit setting for serious study and faith formation. Known for weaving scripture, history, and practical ministry, it favors thoughtful leadership and hands-on practice. The chapel shapes daily rhythms; the library and tech-ready classrooms back up deep research. Students find advising, spiritual care, and vocation guidance that feels personal.
