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 are
“Terontola-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. By plane: The most convenient airports are:
