About Wrocław
Logistics
Wrocław has an international airport, with good connections all over the world: Paris, Zurich, Munich, Brussel, Copenhagen, Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Warsaw, Lisbon, Madrid, London, Rome, Kyiv, Oslo, Stockholm, Dublin, Edinburgh, Helsinky, Seul.
Thanks to comfort road and rail infrastructure, Wroclaw is easily accessible from European metropolises: Berlin (295 km), Dresden (231 km), Prague (217 km), Vienna (326 km), Bratislava (330 km) ), Kraków (236 km) and Warsaw (301 km).
Public transport in Wrocław supports connections between the railway station and the airport and the University of Wrocław (the airport-UWr: 50 minutes, the railway station – UWr: 10 minutes).
Transport from the airport to the center
We recommend municipal transport: day line 106 (departures every 15 minutes) and night line 206 (departures every 60 minutes), going to the railway and bus station where you can switch to publick transport in the direction of Plac Dominikański or Hala Targowa.
Ticket machines in every bus and tram, payment only via bank card; the tickets will be saved on the card (you will not get a paper version). To get to Katedra Judaistyki UWr from the railway or bus station (they are next to each other), you need to change to lines 8, 9, 23 – during the day; 241, 251, 259 – at night.
Tickets can also be bought in ticket machines at selected bus and tram stops – you can pay by card and by cash. Ticket sales points: https://www.urbancard.pl/punktysprzedazy
