I was curious to see what was in.... Entering I immediately saw the proverbs in English and French on the wall... looking further I saw a variety of goods too much to name (I took some photo's) There is so much in Die Vermischte Warenhandlung that for sure you will find an original present.

I include a yarn crawl on one of my days, and this shop is probably the best one. I have bought Regia and Opal sock yarn there for only about €7-8, compared with about $20-22 where I am.
