Underground line U35: From the main station take underground line U35 towards "Hustadt" and alight at "Lennershof" or "Uni-Center". From these stations the Botanic Garden is just a short walk away (entrance N-Südstraße 6 und entrance "Mensa") on N-Südstrasse.
Bus number 320 oder 375: These buses take you to a stop called "Haupteingang Botanischer Garten" ["Botanic Garden main entrance"]. From the road ("Im Lottental") a short path leads to the entrance of the Botanic Garden. Please note, parking is very limited at this entrance.
Note: For historic reasons the entrance in Lottental is called "Haupteingang" [main entrance], but by far the majority of visitors enter the Botanic Garden through the entrance on N-Südstraße 6.
Since the postal address of the Botanic Garden (Universitätsstrasse 150) is also the postal address of the entire campus of the Ruhr-University, it is little use entering it into your satnav if you are trying to get here. Here you find the precise instructions as to how to programme your satnav in order to get straight to the main gate of the Botanic Garden in N-Südstraße.
Please enter:
N-Südstraße 6 or 51.444761, 7.269031 [GPS-coordinates]
Parking opportunities on the Campus are shown in our PARKPLATZPLAN
