Where to shop in Berlin?

Kurfürstendamm and Tauentzienstraße

Tauentzienstraße, the extension of Kurfürstendamm is an ideal shopping mile for the whole family with diversity in styles as well as price categories. World famous KaDeWe department store on Wittenbergplatz is a must for its Food Halls and international designer labels. Strolling towards the Ku'damm you'll find popular fashion stores such as H&M or Zara. Souvenir shops are at the Europa Centre and the traditional Café Kanzler on Kanzler Eck with its great street views of the Ku'damm is an established highlight. Further down the boulevard, on the elegant side streets such as Fasanenstraße and Bleibtreustraße, you can find exclusive labels including Tommy Hilfiger, Gucci and Jil Sander and other chic boutiques and speciality stores. 


Friedrichstraße

For an exclusive shopping experience in Mitte try the Friedrichrichstadtpassagen and its 'Quartiers'. You can find high-end international designer products in an art deco atmosphere or the French emporium Galeries “Lafayette”. The spectacular building by Jean Nouvel is known for its stunning luminous glass cone in the entrance. More stores and a large food hall with abundant international specialties provide an ideal lunch-break stopover. The three buildings are located between the subway stations "Stadtmitte" and "Französische Straße".


Potsdamer Platz Arcades

Right in the centre of New Berlin, just off Potsdamer Platz, are the 'Arkaden'. The lively shopping mall spreads over three floors in a pleasant, airy setting with over 130 shops - ideal for browsing from fashion and accessories to electronic devices. A good choice of gastronomic selections, many cafés and an Italian ice-cream parlor make the Arkaden a popular meeting place before or after a movie at the nearby Cinestar in the Sony Center where non-dubbed films are screened in the original version.


Hackescher Markt

Hackescher Markt and Hackesche Höfe (courtyards) is a great place to head for a lively mix of shops, bars and cafés. Set away from mainstream boulevards, this is the place to soak in the New Berlin's local, trendy atmosphere. The district, known as Scheunenviertel, along Schönhauserstraße, is a magnet for those looking for smaller shops, indie fashion labels or outrageous shoes - great corner of former East Berlin bustling with energy, creativity and innovative esprit.


Charlottenburg: Savignyplatz

Shopping around Savignyplatz in Berlin Charlottenburg, a short walk off the Ku'damm, is a quieter side-street experience - ideal for browsing and discovering a small shoe shop, unusual jewellery or just the right accessory. A good area for fans of furniture and interior design - the multi-storey Stilwerk in the Kantstraße is a must.


Second-Hand

There are countless places in Berlin for second-hand shops. A big selection of second-hand clothes is on sale at Colours in Bergmannstraße, Kreuzberg and in Trash-Schick in Wühlischstraße, Friedrichshain. You'll find nearly everything you need in Berlin's second-hand shops.

 
Flea-Markets

If you’re fancy an open-air shopping experience, there are plenty of bric-à-brac markets and flea markets to choose from. The best known flea market is on the “Straße des 17. Juni” on weekends.
