Hints for Visitors

The Institut für Angewandte Mathematik is situated at the Herrmann-Herder-Str. 10 directly in the north of the city center.

How to reach the institute?

If you come by train and arrive at the main station:

When you leave the main station (presently being rebuilt) at the main entrance you are on the "Bismarckallee". Cross it and turn left (northern direction, parallel to the railway line). At the next big crossing go straight ahead keeping in the same direction. The name of this street is "Stefan-Meier-Straße". Follow it until you can turn right into the "Hermann-Herder-Straße" (2nd turning on the right). The building on the corner is the "Rechenzentrum" (=computer centre) in which our institute is situated on the 2nd floor.

If you are there, just pass the main station (it is on the left hand side - presenty rebuilt) until you reach the next big crossing. Go straight along until you pass another traffic light. After this turn right into the "Hermann-Herder-Straße". The building on the corner is the "Rechenzentrum" ...
