The seminar takes place at the Physikzentrum Hauptstr. 5, 53604 Bad Honnef, Germany. Lectures, accommodation and meals will all take place at the Physikzentrum. Accommodation will be booked for admitted participants automatically by the Wilhelm and Else Heraeus Foundation.

The Physikzentrum is run by the Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft e.V. (German Physical Society) and supported by the University of Bonn and the state North Rhine-Westphalia. The stately mansion housing the Physikzentrum is surrounded by a park at the foot of the Siebengebirge ("the Seven Hills") on the right bank of the Rhine River. In the immediate neighbourhood an extensive net of hiking-paths in Germany's oldest nature preserve is ideal for pleasant short or long walks. Public transport offers convenient access to the nearby cities of Bonn (15 km) and Cologne (40 km) with many cultural and scientific attractions. Due to its central location it is easy to reach PBH from all European countries.
