The Willem Einthoven Building is located at the rear side of Leiden's central station. You can reach CWTS by foot within approximately 5 minutes. Leaving at the Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC) exit, go past the LUMC building on your left, and after 150 meters the RijnVeste Building on your right, you will face a five-story building, the Willem Einthoven Building. Cross the traffic circle in front of you and cross the small bridge (only for pedestrians and bicycles). Turn left and follow the path alongside the building. The main entrance is after the next right turn. CWTS is located on the fifth floor.
