Location of the MNL Branch Library

Address:

Friedrich-Hirzebruch-Allee 4, formerly Nußallee 15a, 53115 Bonn, Germany

The MNL Branch Library for Medicine, Natural Sciences and Agriculture contains:

  • Books and periodicals from the fields of medicine, natural sciences, computer science and agricultural sciences
  • Textbook collections
  • A large number of spaces to study and work

Getting here

By bus and train

We would always advise you to use public transport as there are very few parking spaces at the MNL Branch Library.

There are two main routes you can take:

  1. Lines 604, 605, 606, 607 or 632 as far as the Kaufmannstraße stop:
    all buses stop in Endenicher Allee at the junction with Nußallee, outside the former “Landwirtschaftskammer Rheinland” building.
    Continue along Nußallee for just over 100 yards (around 100 meters). On your right, you will see the blue-green building of the MNL Branch Library in the second row of the development (Friedrich-Hirzebruch-Allee 4, formerly Nußallee 15a). The main entrance is along the footpath that leads to the Mensa Poppelsdorf, which can be found on the side of the building facing away from the street.
  2. Lines 601, 602, 603 or 632 as far as the Am Botanischen Garten stop:
    Turn left into Karlrobert-Kreiten-Straße. Follow this street straight on until it becomes Friedrich-Hirzebruch-Allee. Cross the large forecourt to reach the main entrance of the library.

On foot

From Bonn main railway station to the MNL Branch Library is about a 20-minute walk.
