Where we work

Delitzsch Location

In the future, around 700 employees will work for the CTC in Delitzsch, Saxony. A new CTC campus will be built, including a new S-Bahn station, on the site of the former sugar factory. In the meantime, our non-scientific colleagues work in rented offices at the District Office of Northern Saxony on Richard-Wagner-Straße 7A, which is just a few minutes away from the future CTC site. The district office is about 1.5 kilometers from the local train station and it takes between 12 and 25 minutes to travel by S-Bahn to Leipzig or Halle.

Temporary Location Leipzig (Alte Messe)

A second permanent CTC site with around 300 employees will be established in Merseburg (Saxony-Anhalt) in the coming years. In the meantime, our scientific staff are working in interim facilities at the Alte Messe Leipzig, located at Puschstraße 6b. Although we have moved out of our offices in Leuna, our close ties to Chemiepark Leuna and our partners in Saxony-Anhalt remain strong. Over the course of 2026, we plan to expand the interim site with our own laboratory space.

The Alte Messe is easy to reach by public transportation from Leipzig’s city center, with convenient connections from Halle and Merseburg as well. Our two current locations are now directly connected: the S2 runs from Delitzsch (unterer Bahnhof) straight to Leipzig Völkerschlachtdenkmal, which is only a short 10‑minute walk from Puschstraße 6b (Alte Messe).
