As a long-standing historical early university, the campus of the University of Gottingen is entirely open-plan.
Apart from a small core of teaching buildings and administrative departments focused on a small area in the city center, since the 19th century, new expansions like laboratories, student dormitories, and classrooms have been scattered like stars across various corners of the city.
Therefore, every time the sun sets, you'll see many students in robes emerging from the quaint residential houses.
Some of them have just finished classes at professors' or private lecturers' homes, while others come out hungry after an afternoon's play, looking for food.
And every time the busiest period of crowd flow arrives in Gottingen City, many small vendors catering specifically to students appear on this small city's streets.
