CONFERENCE LOCATION

EuroSys 2012 will take place in the charming capital of Switzerland, Bern. The
historic old town, with its preserved medieval street plan, arcades, fountains
and towers, is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Swiss capital has
an outstandingly broad range of cultural activities, amongst  which a large
body of excellent museums, including the renowned Zentrum Paul Klee, the
Albert Einstein exhibitions, and the Museum of Communication. The Bernese
Alps, with their world-famous summits Eiger, Monch, Jungfrau, are easily
reachable from the city by train. They host the highest railway station in
Europe (3,454 meters).

We look forward to seeing you in Bern from the 10th to the 13th of April!
