Opening hours are published for 6 days a week. Typical hours are 10 am–6 pm. Note that it does not open on Sunday.

I have not visited a better and so well-stocked bookstore in the whole world, and this is despite the fact that I cannot read German. There were plenty of English-language books there. An exceptional shelve on art cinema. I bought lots of books there. I am not a great fan of Cologne as a city, but I will certainly make a stop there in the future, just to revisit this excellent bookstore.

This is an institution, a destination bookstore. No photo prepared me for the level of joy that hit me as the spaces unfolded with each few steps. Their art and design selection is dope. Beginners and gurus alike will find something here. A place like this gives the shopping district such a beautiful and soulful touch.

Hands down the best book store in the world, as they sell an incredible selection of books you cannot get anywhere else.

Amazing, one of the biggest art bookshops I've visited. Also English books!

Impressive size and massive selection while remaining cozy. Lots of stairs, so not the most accessible, but it's loaded with approachable staff.
