Arrival
There are several tram and bus stops within a 400-meter radius of the Hygiene Museum. If you’re arriving from the main train station, it’s probably best to take the tram to the stop “Georg-Arnhold-Bad” . Coming from downtown, the stop “Deutsches Hygienemuseum” is more convenient. Although the stops “Pirnaischer Platz” and “Prager Straße” are served by many routes, they are a bit farther away and the walk there is more complicated. The stop “Hans-Dankner-Straße” is served by only one bus line.
Parking is available in front of the Hygiene Museum and on nearby Lingnerallee (for a fee).
