Monheim house, a remodelled 17th century pharmacy, has housed the collection of Couven Museum since 1958. Showcasing Directoire, Empire, and Biedermeier-style period rooms, it also features a historic pharmacy, kitchen, and porcelain tiles collection. It's a fascinating visit for those interested in art and the lifestyles of the upper classes during those periods.

Do & See
Most of Aachen’s must-see attractions are relics of Charlemagne’s era, introducing visitors to the city’s rich medieval history. The city has a vibrant museum scene that draws artists from around the globe and theatres that present both classic plays and modern reinterpretations, alongside opera performances. Aachen's Christmas Market is a major attraction in December. The squares around the cathedral transform into a festive wonderland, brimming with charming wooden stalls. Here, you can find unique gifts, local delicacies, the famous Printen, and, of course, warming glühwein.
