Getting around Karlsruhe

Public Transport  

The conference venue is close to the tram station ZKM.
Most important tram line is line 2 (pay attention: “2” and “S2” are two different tram lines): You can take the tram line 2 from station ZKM in both directions, either to the western part of Karlsruhe (Europaplatz/ Gutenbergplatz) or to the Marktplatz and the eastern part of Karlsruhe via the main station (Durlacher Tor/ KIT).

In general Karlsrue has a good public transport system with trams (partly underground) and busses making it very easy to get around the city.
