Travelling to Bamberg
There are various possibilities of how to get to Bamberg:
- The next airport is Nuremberg (Nürnberg). Take the underground (U2) to Nuremberg main station. There you can take the train to Bamberg (about 40 minutes).
- For international guests, the airport in Frankfurt am Main or in Munich
might offer better conditions. Frankfurt has an ICE train to Würzburg.
There you have to change to Bamberg.
- If you fly to Munich airport, you have to take the suburban train
(S-Bahn) to the main station ("Hauptbahnhof") and then take the train to Bamberg (about 2:30 hours). Train connections from Frankfurt and Munich are both faster and cheaper than connecting flights to Nuremberg.
The train schedule can be found here: www.bahn.de or
