The Forschungskolleg Humanwissenschaften: How to find us

The Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities is located between the Hardtwald and the Spa Park [Kurpark] of Bad Homburg vor der Höhe. As a campus of Frankfurt’s Goethe University and the seat of the Werner Reimers Foundation, the Institute belongs to the Frankfurt/Rhine-Main Knowledge Region [Wissensregion]. The 36 000 m2 site accommodates the Institute building, which was completed in 2008, the Villa Reimers and the guest house with its 10 one- to three-room apartments.

Then turn right into Kisseleffstraße (On the corner is a Chinese restaurant) and follow this street through the park. After leaving the park, cross Paul-Ehrlich-Weg and follow Am Wingertsberg, which leads up the hill. After 20 meters, you will find the Forschungskolleg on your left.
