Einstein's Sink accepted the petition and stated on the 21st of April 2015 that the sink will be moved to a lecture room in the new building, where it can keep serving the physicists like it did years before. Einstein's Sink Einstein's Sink is an antique sink that has been in use by the physics faculty of Leiden University since 1920. Originally the sink stood in the large lecture room of the old Kamerlingh Onnes Laboratory. It was taken to the new building when the physicists moved to the Leiden Bioscience park in 1977. Here it still stands in the current large
