Meeting Location

The  workshop will take place at Schloss Waldthausen, Mainz, Germany.  Schloss Waldthausen (left picture of the header) is a stately former manor house built by a tycoon from the Rhineland in the early 20th century. It is now operated by the Sparkasse as a training academy and conference venue.

Important information for those who arrive at  Schloss during the weekend: The restaurants at the venue are closed on weekends. There is a restaurant "Cafe am Turm" nearby, where you can get lunch and dinner (find information on page 3 of the flyer below). 

If you would like to go for a walk in the forest, tracking maps are available at the reception.

How to get there?

From Frankfurt International Airport: Local trains and the S8 are running at least every 30 minutes to Mainz main station (direction Wiesbaden, do not take the S9!). From there you can take a cab or bus line 64. If you plan to reach the conference venue by bus, you need to devote at least 30 min from the Mainz central station to Schloss Waldthausen. From there you should follow walking directions for the sign "Sparkasse" and go to the main building (shown in the map of Booklet ) for registration and checkin to your rooms.

By car: Via freeways A60 or A66. Here is a link to Google Maps with the location indicated.

Mainz

On the west bank of the river Rhine, Mainz is one of the oldest German cities going back to Celtic and Roman settlements. It is famous for wine, carnival, and the invention of the movable-type printing press. It has also been a fortified city for most of the time and remnants of the past can be found everywhere.
