Shopping with flair
If you love to go with the flow, the Hirsch-/Bahnhofsstrasse is the address to go to. It is Ulm's most buzzing shopping street and one of the most popular shopping miles in Germany: There is a great number of department stores, brand name businesses, and specialist shops. If you prefer a calmer shopping experience, you may rather enjoy the shops near Ulm Minster and the picturesque network of narrow streets in the old city centre. This is another asset of the city of Ulm: its broad and diverse selection of owner-run and very individualistic specialist shops.
The romantic fishermen's and tanners' quarter is located at the banks of the Danube River. Its crooked streets are home to long established and very original specialist shops. There are also goldsmiths, second-hand bookshops, and galleries. You can also find pleasant restaurant and coffee shops.
