By Plane

The closest international airport to BTU is “Berlin Brandenburg Willy Brandt Airport” (BER). The German airport with the most international connections is Frankfurt/Main (FRA). If you are flying to Germany, you must take the train to Cottbus or Senftenberg. Unfortunately, it is not possible for us to pick you up from the airport.

Germany has a well-developed railroad network. Cottbus and Senftenberg have fast and direct train connections to Berlin, Dresden, Leipzig, and Wrocław (Poland). Therefore, you can reach the BTU relatively easily from any point in Europe. 

Information about train connections and fares can be found on the homepage www.bahn.de/en or in the "DB Navigator" app of Deutsche Bahn.

From the Berlin stations "Zoologischer Garten," "Berlin Hauptbahnhof," and "Berlin-Ostbahnhof" the trains of the line RE 2 leave every hour to Cottbus.

From Leipzig central station, the RE 10 train leaves for Cottbus every two hours.

From Cottbus central station, regional trains RB 49, RE 13 or RE 18 leave for Senftenberg station.

Once you have arrived at the main train station in Cottbus or Senftenberg, you can take various buses (and in Cottbus also tramways) to your accommodation. You can check the public transportation connections on the homepage of the "Verkehrsverbund Berlin-Brandenburg (VBB)". Enter e.g. "Cottbus, Hauptbahnhof" as "Start location" and your new address in Cottbus or Senftenberg as "Destination".
