The King of all all art-books

Some Sites only seems to exist in German. It does make sense when the site is directly related to a physical space that is the mother of all art book stores. Buchhandlung Walther Koenig in Cologne (Köln). On our last visit to Germany it was worth traveling several hundred Kilometers out of the way just to visit this incredible space. You can see one of the walls of this unique international art book store on the homepage of its barebones site. Yes, three floors of high quality, hand picked books. And that is just the new stuff. Above all this there is an antiquarian floor, with very rare and sought after books. If in Cologne, don’t miss this great place. You can order online, of course, but that is a completely different experience.
