Your way to us
Travel by Air:
Nürnberg:
Erlangen may be reached most easily via the nearby Nuremberg airport (ca. 15 km). To go to Erlangen, take the subway line U2 which leads directly to the Nürnberg main railroad station ("Hauptbahnhof") within 12 minutes. Subway trains depart every 10 minutes during daytime hours. Trains to Erlangen depart from the main railroad station about every 20 - 30 minutes. Taxis to Erlangen cost ca. EUR 25, but may be shared.
München:
Munich airport is approx. 160 km south of Erlangen. Train connections to Erlangen are via the "S-Bahn" (rapid tansit) to Munich central station, and then to Erlangen via Nürnberg. Connections may be less convenient than those via Frankfurt airport (see below), although Munich is closer.
Frankfurt:
Frankfurt airport is approx. 240 km north-west of Erlangen. There are trains directly from the airport to Nürnberg where local trains to Erlangen depart every 20-30 min. during daytime hours. Some of the Frankfurt - Erlangen trains save time by connecting at Fürth rather than at Nuremberg central station. The conductor will advise you.
Travel by Train:
Besides the train service from Munich airport (via Munich central station) and from Frankfurt airport to Erlangen approx. every 1.5-2.0 hrs. during the day, some German "Intercity" lines stop at Erlangen and most in Nuremberg where connections to Erlangen depart every 20-30 min.
The very convenient online service on the World Wide Web, is recommended for scheduling individual train routes in Germany: Please note: For looking up train connections to Erlangen starting from Frankfurt airport, enter "Frankfurt(M)Flugh" as departure. For train connections starting from Munich airport, enter "München Flughafen T" in the query. If your keyboard does not have German "Umlaut" facilities, enter "Munchen Flughafen" instead. The syntax for date entry is, e.g., 21.9.2002. The syntax for time entry is, e.g., 11:00
