  • How to Get to the Max-Planck-Institute for Biogeochemistry
    How to get to the Max-Planck-Institute for Biogeochemistry The city of Jena Jena is located in the Saale river valley in the Federal State Thuringia. It is easily reached by train, but has no airport. The two train stations are: Jena Paradies for the north-south-direction (e.g. Berlin, Leipzig, Munich, Nuremberg) and Jena West for the east-west-direction (e.g. Frankfurt). >> http://www.jena.de Getting to Jena by air If you come from America, Asia, Africa and Australia, we recommend flights to Frankfurt International Airport. If you come from Europe you have several flight options. Frankfurt International Airport (305 km) Take the ICE train from the Frankfurt airport (“Fernbahnhof”) to Erfurt or Weimar (depending on the train) and change to regional train from Erfurt/Weimar to Jena West. The trains run about every hour. The journey from Frankfurt airport to Jena takes about 3 hours. Airport Leipzig (90 km) Take the S-Bahn from the airport train station to Leipzig main train station and then an ICE train to Jena Paradies. The journey from Leipzig airport to Jena takes about 2 hours. Airport Berlin Tegel (250 km) (NOTE Berlin Tegel is scheduled to close this summer) Take the airport bus TXL from the airport to the main train station and then the ICE train to Munich which stops at Jena Paradies. The journey from Berlin Tegel to Jena takes about 3 hours. Airport Berlin Schoenefeld (250 km) – soon to be the only Berlin airport; train connections will likely change and be more convenient This airport is in the South of Berlin and served by low cost flights (Easyjet, Ryanair, Germanwings), airlines from Northern Europe and from Russia.

Nimmen: Henry van de Velde Year in Germany and Belgium: Part One Nineteenth-Century Art Worldwide 12, no. 2 (Autumn 2013) Henry van de Velde Year in Germany and Belgium: Part One Honoring the 150th birthday of painter, architect, and designer Henry van de Velde, Google posted a celebratory doodle on April 3, 2013. It was not a global doodle like the glitzy Kiss commemorating Gustav Klimt, displayed around the world in 2012. The pastel tribute to van de Velde could be seen in only a handful of continental markets: Belgium, where he was born in 1863; France, where in 1884 the young painter studied for a few months in Paris with Carolus- Duran and where in 1895 he created three sensational rooms for Siegfried Bing’s new gallery L’Art Nouveau; Austria, where he showed furniture at the Eighth Vienna Secession exhibition in late 1900; Germany, where he lived with his wife and growing family from 1900 until 1917; the Netherlands, where he settled in the 1920s; and Switzerland, where he died in 1957.
