  • Tickets can be bought at automatic vending machines at underground and train stations or inside buses and trams.
  • One-way-tickets ("Einzelfahrkarte: 1 Zone") for single trips inside the city cost 2,70 € and tickets to and from the airport cost 12,00 € ("Airport-City-Day-Ticket"; valid for unlimited trips within the city for one day).
  • For specific information on public transportation schedules, please check at Munich's public transportation company MVV or on Google Maps.

  • Two S-Bahn train lines, S1 and S8, depart to the city centre every 10 minutes.
  • S8 (to Herrsching) is the quicker of the two services.

By Car

The motorway ring around Munich (A99) connects motorways arriving from various directions to the city. In addition, Munich has two inner ring roads: "Mittlerer Ring" and "Altstadtring". The conference venue at LMU Munich's main campus is located in the city centre, on Ludwigstraße / Leopoldstraße, which can be reached from both inner ring roads. If you plan to arrive by car, you should account for heavy traffic at peak times (8:00 - 10:00 a.m., 4:30 - 7:00 p.m.) and a shortage of parking space.

By Taxi

You can order a taxi in Munich by calling +49 - 89 - 21610 or online here. The cost of a taxi fare in Munich can be estimated here. Uber is also currently available in Munich, but please note that this might change due to several ongoing lawsuits in Germany.
