Tegel Airport
10 km
Station Zoologischer Garten
8 km
Kurfürstendamm
1 km
Berlin Museums
Subway station Thielplatz Line 1 0,1 km
From Tegel Airport with the 109 bus (in the direction of Zoologischer Garten) to
Jacob-Kaiser-Platz. There, transfer to the subway line 7 (U7 in the direction of
Rudow) to Fehrbelliner Platz. There, transfer to the subway line 3 (U3 in the direction
of Krumme Lanke) to Thielplatz, leave the station in driving-direction using the left
exit, the Harnack-House is located app. 50 meters to your right.
From Bahnhof Zoologischer Garten with subway line 9 direction Rathaus Steglitz
to Spichernstraße. Get off at Spichernstraße and switch trains to U3 direction
Krumme Lanke. Get off at Thielplatz, leave the station in driving-direction using the
left exit, the Harnack-House is located app. 50 meters to your right.
By car with the Autobahn 115 to the Hüttenweg offramp, turn right and go in the
direction of Dahlem to the corner of Clayallee, right again, then turn left into
Saargemünder Strasse and shortly thereafter is the Ihnestrasse. The Harnack-House
is on the corner of Ihnestrasse and Saargmünder Strasse.

How to reach the Fritz-Haber-Institut
AC CP MP PC TH MPG
By Car
On the freeway (Bundesautobahn) Potsdam-Berlin take exit Hüttenweg.
Follow Hüttenweg to the end (about 3km), two crossings with traffic lights.
(Königsallee/Onkel-Tom-Str. and Clayallee). At the end of Hüttenweg turn
right into Gelfert Straße, and take the second street to the right, Kehler
Weg. At the next crossing, turn left (over the U-Bahn bridge) into Brümmer
Straße. Take the next street to the right Faradayweg.
By Air
from Flughafen Tegel:
Take bus 109 to Jakob-Kaiser-Platz (about 3km away). From there take
subway U7, direction Rudow. Change at Fehrbelliner Platz to U3 direction
Krumme Lanke. Go off at Thielplatz. Travel takes about 50 min. Costs are
about Euro 2,00. A Taxi is somewhat faster, about 25 minutes outside rush
hours. Costs are about 20 Euro.
from Flughafen Tempelhof:
Take subway U6 direction Alt-Tegel, change at Mehringdamm, take U7
direction Rathaus Spandau. Change at Fehrbelliner Platz to U3 direction
Krumme Lanke. Go off at Thielplatz. Travel takes about 30 min. Costs are
about Euro 2,00. Taxi takes about 20 minutes outside rush hours. Costs are
about 15 Euro.
from Flughafen Schönefeld:
Take S-Bahn S45 (Gesundbrunnen). Change to subway at Heidelberger
Platz. Take U3 direction Krumme Lanke. Go off at Thielplatz. Travel takes
about 45 to 60 min. If you arrive late at night, or if for any reason the S45
does not run, do as follows: Take S9 direction Grunewald to Treptower Park.
Take either S46 or S41 direction Gesundbrunnen (that is, get on the S-Bahn
ring line in the clockwise direction). Note that some of the lines in the ring
may have different final stations, depending on the time of day. Get off at
Heidelberger Platz, switch to U3 direction Krumme Lanke, and finally get off
at Thielplatz as above. Independent of the S-Bahn trip costs are about Euro
2,00. Taxi from Schönefeld takes about 45 minutes outside rush hours. Costs
are about 30 Euro.
By Train
from Bahnhof Zoologischer Garten:
Take U-Bahn U9 direction Rathaus Steglitz. Change at Spichernstrasse.
Take U3 direction Krumme Lanke. Go off at Thielplatz. Travel takes
about 30 min. Costs are about Euro 2,00. Taxi takes about 20 minutes
outside rush hours. Costs are about 15 Euro.
from Bahnhof Wannsee:
Take S-Bahn S1 to Lichterfelde West. Take bus X11 direction Dahlem
Dorf and go off at Hittorfstr, or bus M11 and go off at Thielplatz. Travel
takes about 30 min. Costs are about Euro 2,00. Taxi takes about 15 minutes
outside rush hours. Costs are about 15 Euro.
from Ostbahnhof:
Take S3, S5, S7, or S9 direction east to Warschauer Strasse. Change to U1
(direction Uhlandstrasse) at Warschauer Strasse. Change at
Wittenbergplatz. Take U3 direction Krumme Lanke. Go off at Thielplatz.
Travel takes about 45-60 min. Costs are about Euro 2,00. Taxi takes too
long.
Note that during August and September 2005 the U-Bahn ends at
Breitenbachplatz station. There you must continue by bus to station
Thielplatz.
Hints for Public Transport
You can find more information about timetables, alternative routes, etc. at
BVG or VBB.
For all trips described here, a ticket for the fare zones AB is sufficient. Do
not forget to get it stamped in one of the red boxes before you start your trip.

Useful Information
September 6, 2005:
Dear All,
This is an email to those of you, who plan to bring a poster.
Could you please tell us within the next two days:
The title, authors and their affiliations
in order to create an information sheet to be distributed at the workshop.
September 5, 2005:
Let me send you some (final) information that may be helpful for your trip:
As you hopefully know, the workshop website is http://www.fhiberlin.mpg.de/th/Meetings/UCSBworkshop/home.html
This contains quite some information, such as the program and a local map
showing the Harnack House neighborhood. Let me give this here again:
http://www.fhi-berlin.mpg.de/map.epl
When you arrive at Tegel airport I suggest that you take a taxi, telling the driver
to go to the Harnack House which is in Berlin-Dahlem, at the intersection of
Ihnestrasse and Saargemuender Strasse, close to subway station (U-Bahnhof)
Thielplatz. A taxi from Tegel airport to the Harnack House should cost about 20
Euros.
If you come by train, the best station to get off is Bahnhof Zoologischer Garten.
From there you can take a taxi, but taking the subway is also convenient. You
have to change once, namely at Spichernstrasse (start with U9 direction Rathaus
Steglitz, at Spichernstrasse switch to U3 direction Krumme Lanke, get off at
station Thielplatz).
Please note: The Harnack House is a conference center and not a regular hotel.
Thus,
if you will arrive late, please inform Frieda Halder
[email protected]
ASAP !!
(Late is: Saturday and Sunday after 10 p.m. or Monday and Tuesday after 9
p.m.)
**New
Registration will begin at 6 p.m. on Sunday evening in the restaurant of the
Harnack House where a buffet style meal will also be served.
All guest rooms at the Harnack House are equipped with a digital phone which
also contains a network card. You need a patch cable to connect your laptop,
and you can get it from the Harnack House reception desk.
At several locations in the Harnack House there is also WLAN and there is also a
room with two PCs and a printer.
Typically my mobile phone is switched off, but during the workshop it will be on.
Thus, in case you need to reach me please call
+49 30 170 785 9591 from anywhere on the planet
(or just 0170 785 9591 if you are already in Germany or Berlin)
Frieda Halder's phone is
+49 30 8413 4710 from anywhere
(or just 030 8413 4710 if you are in Germany,
or just 8413 4710 if you are in Berlin)
You can also reach me by email
