On the FH Kiel campus in Dietrichsdorf, there are a number of ways to pass the time between events in a meaningful way and in good company. On the one hand there is the Bunker-D cultural centre, where students can get coffee, soft drinks and snacks, visit the current exhibition in the gallery belonging to the bunker or visit the cinema. On the other hand, there is the American Diner, where you can enjoy small dishes and drinks in an American atmosphere. Furthermore, the Max Planck Bistro has recently opened, which offers students pizza and various dishes at fair prices in a relaxed atmosphere. The Schwentine Mensa is also special, which is not only directly at the water but a former boat hall with a particularly maritime flair.
The campus at Osterrönfeld, almost 40 km west of Kiel, is right outside the gates of the district town of Rendsburg, which offers a wide range of amenities and leisure activities.
