Campus Nord at a glance

In the lively Mitte district, relatively hidden between Invalidenstra?e and Luisenstra?e, lies the park-like centrepiece of Campus Nord, where the Royal Veterinary School was established at the end of the 18th century. Today, HU scientists research and teach here together with other renowned Berlin scientific institutions in the field of life sciences. The Humboldt Graduate School and the Centre for Cultural Technology are also based here.

It has a collection of around 210,000 volumes and 150 journal subscriptions.
