How to get to us?
We are located on the 13th and 14th floor of the Geomatikum (address see above), a 18 story building in the center of Hamburg. Since we are in the city, the easiest way to get here is by public transportation (there is very few parking space). The GEOMATIKUM is located close to the Dammtor railway station ( Deutschen Bahn ), the Sternschanze fast city train station (S-Bahn) and the Schlump underground station (U-Bahn).
by train
From main station take subway line U2 (red line, direction to Niendorf-Nord) to Schlump station. After a 5 minute walk you reach the Geomatikum building.
From railway station Dammtor you may take bus number 4 (direction Wildacker or Langenfelder Damm) and get off after 6 minutes at Bundesstraße.
by plane
From Hamburg airport with taxi, it's about 12 km (costs about 20 Euro).
Alternatively, from Hamburg airport you can take suburban railway (S-Bahn) line S1 (green) to Barmbek station. Change there into subway (U-Bahn) line U3 (yellow) (direction St. Pauli) until Schlump station. After a 3 minute walk you reach the Geomatikum building.
