Chocolate Museum

• View on Map

The Imhoff Stollwerk Chocolate Museum provides insight into the history and cultural significance of chocolate, both globally and within Germany. Your students can take a tour of the museum, then watch the chocolate making process before trying some samples, allowing students to explore the sensory aspects of chocolate, including its taste, aroma, and texture. You may also like to stay for traditional Kaffee und Kuchen in the museum cafe afterwards. The CHOCOLAT Shop is a great place to pick up gifts and treats including the popular Lindt Pick & Mix Bar. 

Overall, visiting the Imhoff-Stollwerck Chocolate Museum on a German school trip offers a fun and educational experience that combines history, culture, and culinary arts in an engaging and memorable way. Guided tours can take place in German or English, so for your language students what better way to learn and remember German food vocab than in a chocolate factory!
