Arriving from Germany by car
Visitors travelling by car from Germany and crossing
the border at Lichtenbusch (A4 near Aachen) will take
the E40 via Liège / Luik and Louvain / Leuven. Follow the
signs for Bruxelles Centrum (continue straight ahead)
and once inside Brussels, follow the lane for Institutions Européennes (entering a tunnel). After the tunnel,
take the second exit at the Schuman roundabout, onto
the 4-lane Rue de la Loi / Wetstraat, where you should
stay in the left-hand lane. After about 500 m, turn left
into the Rue du Commerce / Handelsstraat and continue
until you reach the Rue du Trône / Troon (fifth junction).
Turn left here and after approx. 300 m you will arrive
at the GIZ Representation Brussels (building on the
left corner of Rue du Trône / Troon and Rue d’Idalie / Idaliestraat). On-street parking is extremely limited in
this area. If you need a space in our visitors’ car park,
please contact the GIZ Representation Brussels in good
time before your visit.

GIZ Representation Brussels: how to find us
How to find us
Rue
Public transport: Travelling with the ICE or Thalys trains
from Germany (about 3 hours from Frankfurt and under
2 hours from Cologne, respectively) you will arrive at
Brussels Gare du Midi / Zuidstation. From here, take
Metro line 2 or 6, in the direction of Simonis Elisabeth
(take care: not Simonis Leopold II!). Get off the train at
the Trône / Troon station and leave the station by the
Luxemburgstraat / Rue du Luxembourg exit. Cross over
the Rue du Luxembourg and turn left into the next
street (Rue du Trône / Troon). You will find the GIZ Representation approximately 500 m down the road, on
the left hand side. It will take about 20 minutes to get
here from Gare du Midi/Zuidstation. You can purchase
a Metro ticket at the counter for EUR 2, before getting
onto the train. Alternatively, you can take a taxi from
the rank at the station entrance (EUR 10 to 12; approx.
15 minutes to the GIZ Representation Brussels).
