Venue
Discover Würzburg
The International Conference on Complexity, Topology and Dynamics in Quantum Matter will be held at the Congress Centrum Würzburg, Germany from September 28 to October 02, 2026.
The participants of CTD.QMAT26 will enjoy one of Germany's most beautiful cities, lying at the start of the Romantic Road route: Würzburg. Right in the heart of Franconia, one of Germany's biggest wine-producing areas, the city itself is set in a beautiful hilly location on River Main and possesses a wealth of history which centers around the Prince Bishops and their two main homes over the centuries, the Marienberg Fortress and the Residence Palace, the latter being a UNESCO World Heritage site.
