Rausch Schokoladenhaus
About
The Rausch Schokoladenhaus at Gendarmenmarkt is the world’s largest chocolate house, spanning 1,500 m² across three floors of chocolate delights. Visitors can explore an expansive chocolate museum, an open‑air patisserie, and a café where artisanal treats are crafted in front of you. The shop’s rich heritage traces back to 1918, and today it showcases fine single‑origin cocoa bars, pralines, truffles, and seasonal specialties that speak to both tradition and innovation. Rausch combines chocolate craftsmanship with sustainability, sourcing cocoa directly from its own plantations in Costa Rica and partnering with farmers around the globe. Whether you drop by for a quick chocolate‑to‑go, indulge in a tasting, or reserve a café table, the Rausch Schokoladenhaus promises a sensory journey that celebrates the artistry of chocolate.
