If you need to bridge time, the Welcome Center is happy to support your search for accommodation for the first days in Würzburg. The university signed framework agreements with various hotels in the city which offer reduced prices for employees of Julius-Maximilians-Universität. On demand, we can send you a list with hotel names and further information and can reserve a room in a hotel of your choice.

For shorter research stays of up to six months guest researchers can apply for an apartment in the international guesthouse near "Neue Universität", Sanderring. If you are interested, please contact the Welcome Center or your host institute, which has to fill in a reservation form for you in case there is a vacancy. You have to keep in mind, though, that the apartments are quite frequently booked out long in advance. More information on the guesthouse for international researchers.
International research guests have the opportunity to stay at the Welz House during their research stay in Würzburg. The 20 modern apartment rooms at the Welz House are designed to be a temporary home. The lounge at the Welz House also provides an opportunity for researchers to socialize. The Siebold-Collegium Institut for Advanced Studies (SCIAS) is housed in the guest house.
