6. Mori Ogai Tournamen 2020 (PDF)

The Berlin Shogi Club invites to the open Mori Ogai tournament on Saturday, February 15, 2020

The venue is the Humboldt Initiative of the University, which provides us with its premises at Ziegelstraße 3, 10117 Berlin-Mitte. This time, the tournament will take place centrally in Berlin. Just around the corner is the Friedrichstadt-Palast, sights such as the Brandenburg Gate and Berlin City Palace are within walking distance

The venue is a few stops from Berlin Hbf by S-Bahn and only 5 minutes from the stops Friedrichstraße or Oranienburger Straße. If arriving by car, there are parking spaces in the courtyard (in limited numbers). An arrival / departure on the same day is easily possible. Several hotels and hostels in various price ranges (from 28, - €) are in close proximity to the venue, so that nothing stands in the way of a visit to the city on Sunday (or the nightlife on Friday).

Entry fee: 10, - Euro, reduced entry fee 5, - Euro for non-working people of all kinds
