The Shopping to Visit
Dufthaus 4711
4711 is the original Eau de Cologne and a true Cologne institution. The flagship store on Glockengasse has been selling its signature scent for over 200 years. You can pick up classic bottles as souvenirs or gifts, and check out the small in-house museum to learn more about the history of the brand and how the world-famous fragrance came to be.
Neumarkt Passage
Neumarkt Passage is a small, covered shopping arcade just off the busy Neumarkt square featuring a handful of fashion and lifestyle shops, a café, and a small museum space.
Globetrotter
Globetrotter is a massive four-storey outdoor and travel gear store located in the city centre, known for its unique features, including an indoor pool for testing kayaks, a cold chamber, and a climbing tunnel. It stocks high-quality brands, offers rentals and repairs, and even has a second-hand section, making it a great stop for adventure travellers or anyone into the outdoors.
Köln Arcaden
Spread across three levels, Köln Arcaden is a large shopping centre packed with fashion chains, electronics stores, homeware shops, and a big REWE supermarket. There's also a food court with casual dining options and a kids’ play area.
Schee
Schee is a favourite in Cologne’s Belgian Quarter, known for its quirky gifts and carefully curated homeware. The highlight is a full wall of limited-edition art prints—both local and international—but you’ll also find everything from handmade candles and stationery to small-batch gin, chocolate, and other design-forward pieces. It’s the kind of place where you’ll probably walk in for a card and leave with three unexpected souvenirs.
