Juridicum Building

This is the accessibility standards compliant alternative version of the virtual campus tour. If you are not affected by a disability, we recommend you visit the original tour instead. The 360-degree tour is more immersive and includes the full high resolution images. Visit the University of Passau 360-degree campus tour.

Facing the Juridicum - the home of the Faculty of Law - the building seems cut in half by its glass atrium. To the left, there is the library with its panoramic windows (and external window blinds). To the right, you can find mostly lecture theatres.

Inside the building, the atrium features art on its biggest wall. It certainly catches the attention: some people have been known to confuse it for graffiti. 

Outside the Juridicum, another public artwork sits in the middle of a grassy patch between paths. The nugget-like steel sculpture by Hermann Kleinknecht is called "Polyeder-Kopf" (polyeder head) and weighs 2.8 tonnes.

In the background, there is the  the footpath to the Audimax (and the art buildings on the left).

In front of the FIM Building, bikes are parked at one of the many bicycle racks.

To the South of the Juridicum, the footpaths criss-cross between trees. A sun dial using a street lamp's shadow to tell the time is surrounded by bushes and benches.

Despite its size, the ITZ Building is hidden behind greenery.

The Juridicum is directly connected to the Admin Building, which is full of staff offices and services.  Beyond that, the footpath leads to Sports Centre, playing fields and the ITZ Building.
