Spend hours shopping in stylish boutiques and snacking in numerous food outlets at one of central Dortmund’s sleekest and most popular shopping malls.
Prepare to be spoilt for choice in the Thier-Galerie, a sprawling shopping center that spreads out over several tiers in a classically styled building. Hop between over 160 stores, cafés and restaurants within the four-leveled gallery, stopping only to admire the architecture as you go. The mall’s central location in the heart of Dortmund makes it an easy stop while sightseeing.
The Thier-Galerie opened in 2011, offering a stylish, modern shopping experience in the city center. Marvel at the classical exterior of the building, shaped by rows of columns. The main entrance is a reconstructed trading house, lending the building a sense of history. Bridges around the edges of the building link the gallery to the surrounding stores.
Explore 355,000 square feet (33,000 square meters) of shopping mall, with four levels of balconies and bridges promising to keep even the most ardent shopper entertained. Don’t fear getting lost, as the space is clearly laid out with maps to help you navigate.
Major clothing brands, tech shops and children’s toy stores all sit alongside one another in this comprehensive mall. Pick up some jewelry, find your next pair of sneakers or buy video games all within the same building.
Pause from shopping to enjoy some food or drink. The food court offers quick bites in the form of burgers, curries, German snacks and more. A number of cafés invite you to stop and relax for a little longer before returning to the many fashion outlets.
Thier-Galerie is located in central Dortmund, about 5 minutes’ walk away from the German Football Museum and the Petrikirche. Visit as part of a walking tour of Dortmund or drive here and make use of the nearby parking garages. The mall is open every day except Sundays and certain religious holidays. Head to the mall’s website for a full list of the stores, cafés and restaurants that it has to offer.
