Locations
Binnengasthuisterrein ("Innerguesthousearea")
The Colloquium takes place in the immediate surroundings of the
Binnengasthuisterrein, where the Department of Philosophy
resides. The locations can be reached by
public transportation as follows. Take tramline 4, 9, 16, 20, 24
or 25 and get off at stop "Spui" (you can ask the driver to
announce that stop). (Coming from the Central Station,
the Spui is the second stop.)
Oudemanhuispoort ("Oldmanhousegate")
The registration office and lectures rooms are in the
Oudemanhuispoort. Coming from the Spui, take the narrow street with the diamond
factory with the windmill at the corner. This street is called
`Langebrugsteeg'. When you have passed two bridges, turn left and immediately
you find on your right hand a gate which gives access to the
Oudemanhuispoort.
Address: Oudemanhuispoort 4--6, Amsterdam, (020) 5253361
(porter).
Department of Philosophy
In order to reach the Department of Philosophy also take the
Langebrugsteeg from the Spui. After passing the two bridges, you
find on your right hand the gate through which one enters the
area called Binnengasthuisterrein. Coming through the gate
you pass the Atrium (the university restaurant), go left
and just before the next gate you go right. You then enter a
small court-yard, where the entrance of the department is located.
