• From Frankfurt Airport   to Marburg (approx. 80 min by train)

Frankfurt Airport – Frankfurt main station (Hbf) – Marburg main station (Hbf)

After your arrival at Frankfurt airport, follow the green signs “S“ (S-Bahn) or the sign to Regionalbahnhof (regional station) in the lower level of the airport. On your way, you will find ticket counters or automatic ticket machines where you can purchase a ticket directly to Marburg for about 13 Euros. Ask local people for help. From this location, move down another level to track #1. From here, every 15 minutes the S-Bahn leaves to Frankfurt Hbf (main station). The trip takes 10 minutes with 2 stops.

At Frankfurt main station (Hbf) go to the surface level where you find the train platforms. The destination of your train to Marburg will be either Kassel, Hannover, Hamburg or Bremen (usually out of platform #13 or #14). Departure time of your train to Marburg is usually 22 minutes past the hour (one train per hour). All schedules and details are indicated on a large display in the main hall of Frankfurt main station. In the middle of the hall you will find an information desk. The train to Marburg will take 1 h and will stop in Friedberg and Giessen before arriving in Marburg main station (Hbf).

The exact train connections can be found here: Deutsche Bahn Travel Service


Our Institute is located on the Lahn hills (Lahnberge), near the Botanical Garden, direction Rhön-Klinikum AG.  Therefore we would recommend to take a cab from the main station to the hills.  Please click at  map Lahnberge
