Directions


By plane

At the airpirt, go to the "S-Bahn" railway station on Munich airport which is located directly underneath the airport terminal. The logo of the "S-Bahn" is a white letter S on a green circle. You will be directed to escalators leading down to the "S-Bahn" platform. Near the escalators are MVV (public transport) ticket machines and some detailed information of the train departure schedule. The trains to Munich leave about every 10 minutes.

Purchase a ticket online or at the ticket machines: a "Airport-City-Day-Ticket" costs € 13.00 and can be used for the entire day. Go down the escalator and get on the next train (S1 or S8) to Munich. You can not go the wrong direction because the airport is the last stop. Stay on the train until "Marienplatz" (this is the town centre of Munich). Change trains from the "S-Bahn" to the "U-Bahn" (underground, marked by a large white U on blue background). Take the underground line U6 towards "Klinikum Großhadern" to the stop "Klinikum Großhadern". Change there to bus No. 266 direction "Planegg"/"Max-Planck-Institute" and exit at station "LMU-Martinsried". The BMC is the green building next to the station.

If you take the line S8 you can stay on the "S-Bahn" until you reach the station "Pasing". The journey will take approximately 45 minutes and passes through the centre of Munich. At "Pasing" get off the train and take the Bus 56 (tickets and pricing similar as described above) direction "Fürstenried-West". At "Max-Lebsche-Platz" change to bus No. 266 direction "Planegg"/"Max-Planck-Institute" and exit at station "LMU-Martinsried". The BMC is the green building next to the station.

As an alternative to the busride you might take a taxi from "Pasing" (there should be some waiting outside the station on your left) and ask to be taken to the Biomedical Center in Martinsried (Address: Großhaderner Str. 9, 82152 Planegg-Martinsried). The taxi fare is about € 13.00.

By train (and public transport)

If you arrive by train at Munich "Hauptbahnhof" (central station) look out for a MVV (public transport) ticket machine. Choose button "2" and purchase a Single Ticket which is about € 2.90. Follow the signs to the "S-Bahn" (white S on green background). Validate your ticket by inserting it into the blue box with an "E" on it before entering the "S-Bahn" area. Proceed to the "S-Bahn" platform towards "Ostbahnhof". Take the next train (all trains go the same direction) and exit at "Marienplatz". Change trains from the "S-Bahn" to the "U-Bahn" (underground, marked by a large white "U" on blue background). Take line U6 towards "Klinikum Großhadern" to the final stop "Klinikum Großhadern". Change there to bus No. 266 direction "Planegg"/"Max-Planck-Institute" and exit at station "LMU-Martinsried". The BMC is the green building next to the station.

If you approach Munich from direction Stuttgart, Ulm, Augsburg you can exit the train at station "München-Pasing" (a stop before "Hauptbahnhof"). Take the Bus 56 (tickets and pricing similar as described above) towards "Fürstenried-West". At "Max-Lebsche-Platz" change to bus No. 266 direction “Planegg”/"Max-Planck-Institute" and exit at bus stop "LMU-Martinsried". The BMC is the green building next to the bus stop.

In Gräfelfing, turn left onto "Würmtalstraße" (direction "Großhadern"), turn right after approx. 1.5 km and follow the signs to the LMU-BMC/Biocenter.
From west: Coming from Autobahn Stuttgart (A8) exit Autobahn A8 and follow A99 towards "Lindau/Garmisch". Once A99 intersects with Autobahn Lindau (A96) follow A96 direction "München Zentrum". Take exit 36b and follow direction "Gräfelfing". In Gräfelfing turn left onto "Würmtalstraße" (direction "Großhadern"); turn right after approx. 1.5 km and follow the signs to the LMU-BMC/Biocenter.
From south: Coming from Autobahn Salzburg (A8) or from Autobahn Garmisch (A95) take the exit "München-Fürstenried" and turn right direction to Neuried. Then turn left after 500 m onto "Neurieder Straße" and after an approx. 1 km take the "Graubündener Straße" on the right. After an other 3 km turn left in the "Würmtalstraße" (direction "Großhadern"). Now turn left after approx. 1 km and follow the signs to the LMU-BMC/Biocenter.

(Please approach the Biomedical Center from the street 'Am Klopferspitz'. That is where you also find the visitors parking lot.)
