Helmut-Schmidt-Universität

Helmut Schmidt University, the University of the Federal Armed Forces Hamburg, is located at Holstenhofweg 85 in the east of Hamburg. Alongside research and teaching, the campus regularly hosts conferences and symposia, including the International ILIAS Conference in 2026. For events, the university offers a calm, focused setting away from the city centre: short distances across campus, modern lecture halls and seminar rooms, and surroundings where the programme and professional exchange take centre stage. Public transport links make getting there from central Hamburg straightforward. Important for your visit: the campus is a restricted military area. Have a valid ID document ready at the entrance; it will be checked at the gate. Allow a few extra minutes on arrival.
