WiSe-Cryst 2026
Winter School on Electron Crystallography
Venue: Forschungszentrum Jülich (Germany)
Jülich is situated in the triangle between Cologne, Düsseldorf and Aachen. If you travel by plane, Düsseldorf airport is usually the most convenient choice. From the railway station at the airport, we recommend to continue to Düren main station by train. Some trains go directly to Düren whereas other connections involve a change at Cologne main station. From Düren main station you can continue by bus to reach your hotel.
For the school participants, rooms are available at the “B&B Hotel Düren“ . Please use the keyword “ELECTRA” when making your reservation either via email (dueren@hotelbb.com) or telephone (0049 2421 1219790). Rooms must be booked by December 1st, 2025 . Please note that there are only a few hotels in the area, and rooms tend to book out very quickly. Therefore, we strongly encourage you to arrange your accommodation as soon as possible.
Traveling to / from the Hotel has to be organized and paid at your own expenses. But we will organize a shuttle bus that will pick you up at the B&B Hotel in the morning and will bring you back in the evening. If you choose a different accommodation, please arrange your transportation independently.
