Department Store of the West (KaDeWe)

With 60,000 square meters, the equivalent of 9 football fields, 380,000 articles and about 40,000 visitors every day, KaDeWe is the largest and legendary department store of mainland Europe. KaDeWe has been a Berlin institution for over 100 years, surviving the tumultuous times of 20th-century German history. Beginning commercial life in 1907, the shop is Berlin's symbolic presence, the Its bustling or quiet indicates the state of the city. From World War I to the Golden Twenties, the Depression, the Nazis and World War II, the Cold War and the “Wirtschftswunder” of 1950, finally the reunification of Germany in 1989. Through all the waves wind, KaDeWe retains its aura, becoming a shopping and organizing paradise in Berlin.

Whether it's strolling around the fine ceramics, fresh oysters seafood stalls and cool champagne, or chocolate praline truffles on the sixth-floor food court, or linger in the fashion boulevards, shop at KaDeWe is not just about simple shopping but also about product and brand awareness tailored to each consumer's style.

It is also a place for shoppers to experience a quintessential luxury food hall and affordable supermarkets.
