By plane:
the closest airports are Zurich airport, Geneva airport and EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg.

​

From the airport, take the train to Fribourg (1.5 - 2 hours from all three airports); you can find the timetable at www.sbb.ch.

The University of Fribourg has more than one University building; the symposium will be at the physics department at the “Site Pérolles”, Chemin du Musée 3.

Take the bus to the University, the lines 1 (direction “Marly”), 3 (direction “Pérolles“) and 7 (direction “Cliniques“) will get you there. All three lines stop at the train station. The bus stop in front of the University is called “Pérolles / Les Charmettes”.

Alternatively, it's a 15 minutes walk from the train station along the “Boulevard de Pérolles“.
