In the history of German philosophy, so markedly systemic and rigorous, two thinkers form a true game changer. Both profound critics of their time, they drew their criticisms to almost every aspect that shaped the intellectual reality of their time. In this sense, this article aims to analyze the criticisms that these two philosophers, that is, Schopenhauer and Nietzsche, weaved against the decay and ruin of the educational system and german and European culture. To this end, a bibliographical reading will be made about what attacked these thinkers, as well as about Schopenhauer's influence on Nietzschiano's thought on education and how it diagnosed, by educational decay, the German and European cultural decay.
