It houses way more books than it looks like it was from the outside and has a really quaint and cozy bookstore vibe. The staff was also very polite and we were able to find some really interesting titles. As you would guess most of the titles are in German, but I was able to find many English versions as well. It's free to enter and I believe this is a must visit while in Heidelberg, especially for any reading fans.

Even more so when you can recognize books even when you can't read them for the language gap. It was fun poking around in here. Went home with a copy of Der Kleine Prinze.

As a tourist who can't speak German, I still wanted to visit a bookstore!

I was inside for almost 2 hours. It is quiet, but the staff was attentive to those needing help. There was a visiting author on the second floor that I would have loved to sit in on, but it was obviously in German, so I didn't. There is only one small area with books in other languages, about 200 titles in English, and a few in other languages. All of the books looked like either recent releases or the classics....I had a hard time resisting buying too many to fit in my suitcase! When I paid for my items, they put the small things in a paper bag, but on my way out I found a beautiful German copy of Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice for only €9....it's coming home with me! I went back in and bought a cute tote bag to carry it on my walk....the tote was €2.50, but it's another souvenir!
