The heart of Leibniz Universität Hannover beats in the idyllic Welfenschloss. In 1879 it was moved from the 1831 founded higher vocational school and later Royal Technical College. From initially 64 students of the vocational school have now become around 23,000 students. More than 2,300 scientists work here at nine faculties with over 160 institutes.

Hiking

The Welfenschloss houses, among other things, the Docu-Lounge, which is operated by Ricoh. The Guelph Castle is the headquarters of Leibniz University Hannover (LUH).
Currently (2022) the Docu-Lounge is no longer in operation.
