Germanys Biggest Shopping Cities, Germany

Find the best deals on accommodation in Germany here!

People who like to indulge in the occasional stylish shopping spree while on holiday will find that Germany fits the bill just perfectly. The inner cities of the major German towns can all boast well-stocked shopping streets and elegant malls. You can really spend your money in style on Dosseldorf's K, for example. Scarcely any designer or jeweller of renown is missing from Germany's most exclusive shopping street. If you travel to Leipzig by train, you'll not only arrive at one of Germany's most beautiful and most modern railway stations. Built in 1915 as the largest railway terminus in Europe, it became one of the hallmarks of Leipzig, and was reopened five years ago after comprehensive renovation as a shopping and recreational venue.

Now more than 100,000 people stroll along its promenades every day. Hamburg has always been shaped by trade and commerce. Whether as a member of the Hanseatic League or later, as a port with one of the largest turnovers of the European continent, the metropolis on the Elbe lives off buying and selling. In the Stilwerk, for instance, you can discover the latest trends in design and living. On two floors, the miniature department store Kaufrausch offers everything you might use to adorn your body, from striking clothes to glittering fashion jewellery. In the Bavarian capital, Munich, you'll find more valuable things. Just a few metres from the shopping street, the art gallery of the Hypo-Kulturstiftung awaits shopping tourists who are also interested in art, exhibiting modern classics and the contemporary avant-garde.
