How to find us

We meet at the Klinikum Großhadern, Hörsaaltrakt, Floor K O2, Seminarroom 5, Marchioninistraße 15, 81377 München.
Großhadern lies in the south-west of Munich (map). For navigating, you might also find the roadmap and the following directions helpful:
• If you arrive in Munich by plane, take the S-bahn S8 ("Airport line") to Marienplatz.
• If you arrive by train, take any S-bahn or U-bahn to Marienplatz.
• From Marienplatz take U6 to final stop Klinikum Großhadern.
• Leaving the platform, you stand inside a glass pyramid (marked in red in the left figure below).

The red pyramid is the Ubahn-station at which you arrive using U6. The building marked in green is your destination.		This is the inside of the clinical center. The seminarrooms are on the upper right next to the letters "KL".

Accomodation

You will need to make your own accommodation arrangements. We recommend rooms at the Hotel Neumayr, which lies in Großhadern close to the clinical center. If you want to stay closer to the center of Munich, we recommend hotels in Schwabing, which is 15min by U-bahn from Großhadern. Have a look at Hotel Hauser, Hotel Lettl, or Renner Hotel Savoy.
