Our venue, the German Sport University Cologne, offers a modern and inspiring setting for exchange, learning, and collaboration.
The German Sport University - Germany’s only sport university - is located in the West of Cologne and is surrounded by greenery, but is easily accessible by local transport and the highway network.
The Campus offers short ways and is situated right next to the stadium “RheinEnergieStadion” and one of Cologne’s parks, the “Stadtwald”. The GSU’s campus provides ideal infrastructural conditions and in equal measure recreation. 31,000 square meters of sport area are available for the students on campus.
A campusmap is available for download on the right side of this page. The congress venue will be in the Foyer (A2) and the lecture halls (A3).
