How to get there

Der Weg zu uns (German)

The Huppertsberg Factory building has three entrances, a Main Entrance and a South and North Entrance. The CSCP can be conveniently reached via any of these three entrances.

The Main Entrance offers an elevator and can be found on the left hand side at the mid-point of the building after passing through the historic Huppertsberg Factory gateway. When arriving on the second floor the CSCP can be found through the glass door to the left hand side when exiting the elevator. For guests preferring to take the stairs the CSCP can be reached on the second floor via the South Entrance outside the Huppertsberg Factory gateway or via the North Entrance that lies beyond the Main Entrance.

When arriving, please register with Gabriele Eigen, Assistant to the Managing Director, office 02.01.

Wuppertal is a city of 400.000 inhabitants some 30 km east of Düsseldorf.

PLEASE NOTE: Due to a long-term construction at Wuppertal main station there are  traffic diversions in place that may cause significant delay.

If coming by car, please try and avoid the city centre. If coming by train, please walk from the main station to the bus stop "Am Wall" and get on line 620, 623, 625, 635 or 645.

Check connections to Wuppertal Central Station (opens in a new window)

From Düsseldorf airport to Wuppertal

If you arrive at Düsseldorf airport, you may take a taxi to Wuppertal (approx. 50 Euro). You may prefer to take the next train from the airport to Düsseldorf Hbf or Hauptbahnhof (central station) instead.

There, you would have to change trains and take the "S8" train heading for Hagen or other trains stopping at Wuppertal Hbf. The ride from Düsseldorf Hbf to Wuppertal Hbf takes about 30 minutes.

From Frankfurt airport to Wuppertal

If you arrive at Frankfurt airport, you are advised to take an Intercity Express (ICE) to Köln (Cologne) which leaves the airport station (two levels below "Arrivals") about every 30 minutes.

In Köln you may have to change trains (usually the train towards Wuppertal departures from the opposite side of the platform where you arrive). But you may be lucky and the Intercity Express (ICE) will take you directly to Wuppertal. The ride from Frankfurt to Wuppertal takes one hour and 38 minutes.
