-{{Todo|Where to park your car}}
+'''Parking:''' Within business hours, try to find parking spaces which are not assigned to companies (although there are only a few spaces). In the weekend, you can usually park whereever you find free slots, most of the employees are absent anyways. If you cannot find free/unassigned slots in front of the building, you can try your luck following the driveway to the courtyard among the C buildings.
