Very impressive museum that show you how chocolate is made from the plant. Buy ticket on Trip.com to avoid waiting in the queue.

Great museum that walks you through the history of cocoa and the manufacturing of chocolate from start to finish. Parts of the museum seem more geared towards children, but the complimentary chocolate throughout makes up for it! Entrance a little pricey, but feels worth the price.

Chocolate is a sweet food made from cocoa pulp and cocoa butter as the main raw materials, delicate taste, strong aroma, originating in Central and South America, the ancestor is "xocolatl", can be directly eaten, can also be used to make cakes, ice cream, etc. Chocolate is rich in magnesium, potassium and vitamin A, as well as cocoa base, so it has high energy.

Cologne Chocolate Museum, also known as the Imuho Schdowick Museum, is located near the Cologne Cathedral in Germany. The museum was founded in 1993 and was built by the famous German chocolate maker Schdowick with a investment of 53 million Deutsche Mark.

I'd always wanted to go to this museum but found it a bit disappointing. Yes, it was very informative about the history of chocolate but I would have liked to see more real people making things, and not machines , and also more free samples - one measly finger wafer dipped in the chocolate fountain and a small pice of salted chocolate. The cakes in the cafe looked great though - I wish I'd spent the 11.50 euro each entrance fee in there instead !
