After a turbulent Covid year, the well-being of our students and staff has the highest priority. How can we prevent physical and mental health problems? This was the key question at the Opening of the Academic Year in Pieterskerk in Leiden on 6 September.

Leiden University has a number of parking areas. To use these parking areas you need a parking subscription. The Rijnveste and Sports Centre parking areas are the only parking facilities that can be accessed with a PIN.

The University’s historical collection is housed in the Academic Historical Museum. The museum is situated in the Academy Building.
