From the centre of town, one can
take the frequent metro bus 2 to the University. They all run
along Kroghstraede 3, a short walk
from our building. The buses start from Nytorv, the main square in
town, and pass close to Prinsen Hotel and Park Hotel. They can be
picked up on the main road near the railway/bus station just 200
metres from both of these hotels (make sure you are going in the right
direction).
If you catch Metro bus 2, then
ask the driver for the Kroghstraede stop just before the junction
with Frederik Bajers Vej.
All the bus trips cost 16 kronor.
But you can buy a 10 trip 2-zone clip card that gives you a cheaper
fare for ten trips (including transfers). This should be bought in a
kiosk (for example in the railway station) for 110 kronor. If you
are going to make more than 6 trips, it is worth it. Just clip the
card in the machine when you enter the bus.
The key identifying landmark when
you exit the bus is a new two-storey building with a big black
square cube attached to it (the centre of the building over the
atrium has a distinctive roof like the wing of a plane). This is the
Humanities building, in which all Centre activities take place.
The city
bus company has online timetables (in Danish!):
- Metro bus
Line 2 - from Nytorv. Very frequent service during the day
(roughly every 5 to 10 minutes).
There is a yellow city bus (12)
that also passes near the Kroghstræde building, but not at the same
stop as the red metro bus 2. It is not so frequent. This bus runs
close to the Zleep Hotel.
Buses run in the evening as
well.
The main campus is relatively easy
to find, but it is spread out. After following Niels Bohr Vej, turn
onto Frederik Bajers Vej - the site is just off this major road.
There is ample free parking right outside the building, marked on
map 2.
