From Düsseldorf Airport to Dortmund

Take a train from Airport Station (NOT: Airport Terminal) to Dortmund. A mono-rail train (“Sky train”) leaving every 10 minutes takes you within less than 10 minutes to the Airport Station (DB – Deutsche Bahn). You get tickets at a ticket counter in the airport. There are lots of trains to Dortmund. Do NOT take S-Bahn as it takes too long. All other trains take about 45 minutes to Dortmund Hauptbahnhof, i.e. Central Station.

From Dortmund Airport to the Central Station

Airport Express (bus) transport is called “Airport Express”. It takes approx. 20 minutes.

Public transport

Take the subway (U41) from Dortmund Hauptbahnhof (Dortmund Central Station) in direction “Brechten/Eving/Brambauer”. Leave the subway at “Zeche Minister Stein” stop (approx. 7 min). Pass the shopping centre (“REAL”) and you will see the sfs building.

Car parking

Recently we see a lack of places to park directly at our institute. We recommend to use parking spots in the surrounding streets.
