Following the success of the previous year, the Giessen Master Concerts Association is once again inviting visitors to four musical highlights on the Schiffenberg in 2017. Visitors can look forward to four special basilica concerts on 21 May, 18 June, 23 July and 13 August.
For all visitors who wish to travel from Giessen city centre by public transport, Stadtwerke Giessen (SWG) will be temporarily operating additional buses between the "Berliner Platz" and "Schiffenberg" stops. "As the events start at 11.30 a.m., many music lovers will already be using the bus in the morning," explains Anne Müller-Kreutz, Head of Local Transport Services at SWG.
For this reason, line 6 will be travelling from the "Berliner Platz" stop to Schiffenberg at 10:51 and 11:51 on the four Sundays. Departure times from Schiffenberg to Berliner Platz: 11:06 and 12:06.
From 12:51, line 6 then runs regularly every 60 minutes from the "Berliner Platz" stop in the direction of Schiffenberg and from 13:06 every hour from Schiffenberg back to the city centre.
You can find out all about the timetables by calling 0641 708-1400, on the Internet at www.stadtwerke-giessen.de/verkehr or at the mobility centre in the Stadtwerke Gießen customer centre. Opening hours: Mondays to Fridays 09:00 to 18:00 and Saturdays 09:00 to 14:00
