How to get to Osnabrück

By plane

In particular if you are coming from overseas the best and quickest way to get to Osnabrück is to fly into Münster/Osnabrück (FMO).

A shuttle bus (eXpress line X 150) will take you from there into the centre of Osnabrück, to the "Neumarkt". It leaves about once an hour and has all together 7 different drop offs in Osnabrück and depending on where you are staying you chose the one that suits you best. (You’ll find a time table etc. at www.osnabrueck-net.de under Tourismus&Verkehr).
Very close to the "Neumarkt", however, is the building where the Fall School takes place. It is no. 47 on the map.

Also Amsterdam, Berlin, Hamburg, Hannover and Düsseldorf International Airports are within 3 hours travel by train.

If you have any further questions about how to get here please don't hesitate to ask, mail to cfallsc@cogsci.uni-osnabrueck.de.
