Ulm has highspeed train connections (ICE) to all major cities. Local trains link Ulm and Blaubeuren (ca 20 min). From the train station in Blaubeuren, either take a Taxi to the Heinrich Fabri Institut, or walk (ca 15 min).
Train schedules are given at Deutsche Bahn
Getting to Blaubeuren by airplane
If you fly in from America, please remember to start your travel one day earlier (i.e. September 11) in order to arrive on September 12 in Germany. International airports within 2-3 hours by train are Stuttgart, Munich, and Frankfurt. Frankfurt Airport has a high speed train connection (ICE). From Stuttgart or Munich airport you have to take a local train (S-Bahn) to the central train station in Stuttgart/Munich and continue from there to Ulm and Blaubeuren (see above). Train tickets can be booked in advance electronically with a credit card. In that case print out your ticket on paper and take it along. Also all airports have ticket counters near the train station.
Your options are basically to fly in either to
- Frankfurt Airport and continue by the high speed ICE train to Ulm (direct link) and from there by local train to Blaubueren. Trains leave Frankfurt every hour and take max 3 hours to arrive in Blaubeuren. Train schedules are given at Deutsche Bahn Enter From “Frankfurt Flughafen Fernbf” To “Blaubeuren Bahnhof”. Ticket fare one way is EUR 60.
Alternative options, if you are confident to manage the local trains first:
- Stuttgart Airport: here, you have to take a local S-Bahn first to get to Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof and then the ICE to Ulm and a local train to Blaubeuren. Trains leave Stuttgart every hour and take max 2 hours to arrive in Blaubeuren. Train schedules are given at Deutsche Bahn Enter From “Stuttgart Flughafen” To “Blaubeuren Bahnhof”. Ticket fare one way is EUR 30.
- Munich Airport: here, you have to take a local S-Bahn first to get to Munich Hauptbahnhof and then the ICE to Ulm and a local train to Blaubeuren. Trains leave Munich every hour and take max 3 hours to arrive in Blaubeuren. Train schedules are given at Deutsche Bahn Enter From “Munich Airport” To “Blaubeuren Bahnhof”. Ticket fare one way is EUR 40.
