The conference is located at Palazzone, a Renaissance building in Cortona.

Google-map coordinates of the Palazzone are shown here.

 

How to get there:

By car:

Take Autostrada A1, the main (and only) highway connecting Rome to Florence, and exit at Valdichiana. Right after the toll gate exit take the E45 freeway (slip road from Siena to Perugia) in the direction of Perugia and then take the second exit for Cortona (Cortona San Lorenzo). Follow the indication to SS71 road in Camucia, then proceed towards Cortona.

By train:

The train stations closest to Palazzone areTerontola-Cortona” and Camucia-Cortona”, both on the railway connecting Florence to Rome. Both stations are connected to Cortona by bus to Cortona and partially to Palazzone, but there are only few (SU4) buses on Sundays (you can check the schedule on Google maps). Terontola station is 11 km from Cortona and Camucia station is 5 km from Cortona.

You can also take a taxi from the train station to your hotel; note that you will not find them at the station, and you need to call them by phone: here are some numbers of taxi drivers that you can call.

The train schedules can be obtained from the official timetable, or alternatively at the DB, which also covers non-Italian train stations.
