Augsburg is well connected to national and regional train services. You can even go from Paris to Augsburg with only one stop-over! Please check connections from your home town at bahn.de. Instructions on how to get from the train station to the venue can be found here.

Munich Airport

After touchdown at the Munich Airport, you can take both city train (S-Bahn) lines to go to Munich Central Station. From there, it is easy to get to Augsburg with a regional train. Services are offered at least every hour from 5:34 in the morning till midnight. If you are in a rush, you can also take the ICE, but the upgrade is usually not worth its money since the trip is only about 43 minutes anyway.

More information about the airport is available at www.munich-airport.de. To find train connections, check bahn.de with "München Hbf" as your starting point and "Augsburg Hbf" as your destination. If you are going directly from the airport to the university, you might want to get off the train at "Augsburg Haunstetterstraße" and get on Tram 13 towards "Haunstetten West" right away. This will save you approximately 20 minutes. If you want to go to the B&B Hotel, do the same but take Tram 2 towards "Haunstetten Nord" and get off at "Berufsschule".
