The Best Places To Buy Souvenirs In Dusseldorf

Souvenirs are a fun part of any trip because they are tangible memories of time enjoyed and loved, and they’re also great conversation starters once back home – each souvenir, whether expensive or free, chanced upon or diligently hunted down, tells a story. Several shops in Dusseldorf sell unique souvenirs, as well as the usual standbys to help you cherish your memories of Dusseldorf for years.

Grocery shops and supermarkets

Dusseldorf has a number of home breweries, and Altbier (old beer) – darker than regular beer and unanimously agreed to be delicious – is unique to the city. Visiting beer lovers must make it a point to pick up a few bottles or cans of Altbier from any convenience store or supermarket in Dusseldorf (like Aldi, Rewe, Kaufland or Lidl).

Bookstores
