HOW TO FIND US:
Our visitor address is: Science Park 904, 1098 XH Amsterdam
You can recognise the faculty building by the two domes on top; Grappa is located on the 4th floor. The building is also (currently) the largest building in the Science Park. Walk under the building between the pillars into the central area to find the main entrance.

Directions:
By car:
Take the Amsterdam orbital motorway (A10) and turn off at junction S113 towards Watergraafsmeer (from Utrecht/The Hague turn left off the slip road and from Zaandam/Amersfoort turn right off the slip road). Turn right at the third set of traffic lights and follow the Kruislaan past the train tunnel to where the road becomes the Science Park (The first set of traffic lights is the junction at the orbital motorway, and the second set is just 100 metres further. The third set of lights is at the point where the houses start on the right-hand side).
