Information for Visitors

Would you like to find out more – first hand – about the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics? Perhaps you would like to take a look at the labs and talk directly to the scientists working there about their research projects?

If so, we would be happy to organize a tour for you. Groups of up to 30 people – delegations, physics students, school classes, but also any other interested persons – are most welcome.

A visit to the MPQ involves:

• An introduction to the institute, covering its organisational structure, history and research topics. Duration: about 30 – 45 minutes
• A tour through two or three labs guided by scientists who explain their experiments. Duration: about 90 minutes

Total duration: about two hours
