Venue & info

Coming to the city of Luxembourg

By plane

Luxembourg airport is connected by regular flights to all main destinations. The bus line 16 takes you quickly from the airport to the campus (bus stop "Coudenhove-Kalergi") or to the center (bus stop "Royal").

A regular bus service connects the train station to the Frankfurt-Hahn airport (Germany) and to the Brussels(South)-Charleroi Airport (Belguim), which are served by low-cost flights to many European destinations.

By train

See the websites of the Luxembourg rail company CFL, or SNCF, or Deutsche Bahn. Many bus lines take you directly from the train station to the campus: e.g. lines 1 and 16, bus stop "Coudenhove-Kalergi", or line 18, bus stop "Université - Campus Kirchberg".

By car

See how to reach the campus Kirchberg.

The participants who come by car and have informed the organisers can use the parking spaces which are usually restricted to the staff of the University of Luxembourg (see the campus map). To raise the barrier, it suffices to give your name. However these parkings are very small and usually full, and there is no other free parking space near the campus. We therefore advise you to leave the car at your hotel and come to the university by bus.

Coming to the University

The conference will take place at the campus Kirchberg of the University of Luxembourg. Lectures will be held in the main building, in the bloc "bloc A" or "bloc B"; see the campus map and the programme of the workshop for the detail of the rooms. On Monday from 9:00 to 9:30, the registration desk will be in front of the room of the first talk.

See how to reach the campus Kirchberg.

Accomodation

A list of hotels in Luxembourg is available here. There is also a youth hostel.

Speakers will be lodged at the hotel Golden Tulip Central Molitor. It is at walking distance of the train station and the city center, and near the bus stop "Place de Paris" (lines 1, 16, 18).

Public transportation

Public transportation in Luxembourg is efficient, and often preferable to car when moving within the city. A ticket costs 1,50 € and can be paid directly to the driver. With one ticket you can use all the buses as well as trains inside Luxembourg, with a 2-hour time limit. As mentioned above, you can reach the campus Kirchberg with the following buses:

n°1 (direction: Luxexpo) and n°16 (direction: Aéroport Luxembourg/Findel)
They have almost all the same stops. They go from the train station ("Gare Centrale"), through the city center (bus stop "Royal - quai 1"), to the campus Kirchberg (stop "Coudenhove-Kalergi"); same route in the other direction.
n°18 (direction: Kirchberg, John F. Kennedy)
It goes from the train station ("Gare Centrale"), trough the city centre ("Hamilius"), to the campus Kirchberg ("Université - Campus Kirchberg"); same route in the other direction.

All these buses have a stop near the hotel Golden Tulip Central Molitor (bus stop "Place de Paris").
