Arrival by train

Once you have arrived at the main train station in Mannheim, you can reach ZUMA either on foot or by tram.

a) on foot (about 10 minutes): when you emerge from the train station, bear left until you reach the castle (e.g., Schloß). Then cross the Bismarckstraße road. Find the tram stop Schloß and at the next street take a left until you reach the intersection. You should see the B2 block and this is where ZUMA is located.

b) by tram: first look at the tram map. There you can see which tram line to take; we recommend either the 1 or the 5. You are heading for the Schloß stop from which you should take the road that lies between the A1and the B1 blocks. You will find ZUMA at the next intersection.

Arrival by plane (Frankfurt Airport)

a) by airport bus: take the airport bus from Frankfurt to Mannheim. The Mannheim stop can be seen on the map above. Once you arrive, proceed either by foot or tram from the main train station toward the castle (see directions above).

b) by train: take the train from Frankfurt to Mannheim, then proceed by tram toward the castle (see directions above).

Arrival by car

If you are coming either from the north or the south (on the A5 or A6 highway/Autobahn), take the Mannheim-Mitte exit. At the water tower, turn left toward the Hauptbahnhof. Stay in the right lane and follow the signs for Schloß. Find a parking space (check the signs for parking regulations) and then follow the map above.

If you are arriving from the west (on the A6 or A61), it is best to follow the signs for Ludwigshafen-Mitte (Careful! Do NOT take Ludwigshafen-Nord!) on the A650 route. Do not turn off this route, but stay on it as it crosses the Rhein river until you reach Mannheim. Make sure you are in the left lane! After the bridge, turn left and at the next street, turn right and follow the signs for Schloß. Once you have reached it, you can attempt to find a parking space (check the signs for parking regulations) and then follow the map above.

You can find a city map here.
