Plan your train journey with NS, or use 9292 for public transport connections. Check the journey planner shortly before departure for up-to-date services.

By car

Parking in Leiden’s historic centre is limited. Leiden University lists Haagweg Parking as an option for visits to city-centre buildings. Check the operator’s current rates and transport options before travelling.

See Leiden University’s venue page for parking and building information.

Accessibility

The university lists accessible toilets and a lift accessed through an entrance opposite the main entrance. The main entrance has a threshold of approximately 4 cm and a manually operated door; some floors are accessible only by stairs. An accessible parking space is listed opposite Rapenburg 46, across the canal.
