Chocolate Museum (Köln)
written by jogintas on May 9th, 2008 (0 votes)

“Enjoy an expedition through 3,000 years of chocolate history, either in reality by coming to the Chocolate Museum in the heart of Cologne” – this is what you get, when you walk in the riverside in Koln and stop just in front of the ship-like place, called the Chocolate museum.

Get ready, you happy sweetie-lovers – this is a place, where you should rent a flat (joking, of course). It is a museum, which has three main interest points. First of all, you will go to the places, full of some reading materials (on the walls, in the windows and so on) – this is where you get the idea, from where does the chocolate come from (from Cocoa, to be precise).

The second place – the making of chocolate. Yes, Lindt chocolate is produced just in front of your eyes and nose (you can smell chocolate everywhere) – you can even taste it, as people are very friendly and always give you something to be very happy (I got at least 3 different chocolate things). And of course, the last, but not the least – the real museum… It’s full of old-school paintings, commercials, different types of packages and so on.

Yes, you can find Milka cows there, and yes – there is a little cinema, showing chocolate content all the time… So, are you ready, or maybe, are you ready not to go there? Yes, it’s a real fight with yourself, and people from the museum know that. That’s why they have built a huge chocolate shop right at the exit of the museum.
