How to get there:

You can walk from the old part of town to the Brechtbau in about ten minutes, but buses 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7 and 17 from the main station and town centre (direction "Lustnau", "Sand", or "Waldhäuser Ost", respectively) stop at "Geschwister-Scholl-Platz" or "Lothar-Meyer-Bau", which is the nearest bus stop. Since the Wilhelmstraße is a one-way street, you have to walk a short distance to take the bus back ("Hölderlinstraße").
