Travel information
By car
Approaching from the east (Mannheim/Karlsruhe):
Take the A6 Mannheim–Paris motorway as far as exit/Ausfahrt St. Ingbert West. Follow road signs to main entrance of the university. (2022: Current road construction close to univ. campus; plan to leave a bit earlier than usual.)
Approaching from the north (Koblenz/Trier):
Take the A1 motorway as far as junction/Autobahnkreuz Saarbrücken, then take the A8 motorway as far as junction/Autobahnkreuz Neunkirchen. From there proceed towards Saarbrücken (see: approaching from the east). This is a detour, but it will spare you from having to experience a lot of slow-moving traffic through the center of Saarbrücken.
Approaching from France:
Take the Paris–Mannheim motorway as far as exit/Ausfahrt St. Ingbert West. Follow road signs to main entrance of the university. (2022: Current road construction close to univ. campus; plan to leave a bit earlier than usual.)
