Anfahrt zum Renthof

By car
Take the exit "Marburg Mitte". Pass the shopping center "Erlenring", cross the river Lahn, turn right at Rudolfsplatz in front of the upper town. In Biegenstraße you pass the cinemas (on the right) and the university main building (on the left). Follow the course of the road, take the bend to the left and turn into Deutschhausstraße. Follow the street until the intersection and you will be at the traffic light next to the Elisabethkirche. Turn left into Pilgrimstein. Immediately after, turn right into Steinstraße and then diagonally left at the top into Roter Graben, which winds its way up the hill and ends at the top in Renthof.
Once you arrive at the Renthof, you will find our research groups in Laboratory Building II. For illustration purposes, this is marked in red in the site plan sketch below.

By bus and train
From the train station - with your back turned to the station building - look down Bahnhofstraße. Follow Bahnhofstraße, pass under the highway, leave the post office on your right and then turn left into Elisabethstraße. This street leads you past the Elisabethkirche. Go straight across the intersection and after about 50 meters turn right into Steinweg. After a few meters you have the choice between several small streets. Take the steepest and narrowest road up the hill right at the butcher shop. If you think you are wrong, you are exactly right! The Rote Graben winds its way up the hill and joins the Renthof at the top.
