Apple to open first German retail store in Munich

After two years in the making, Apple will open its first retail store in Germany this weekend. The flagship store is a multi-level building in the heart of Munich, located at 1 Rosenstrasse. The five storey building dedicates the first two floors to sales space and the other three to office space. The store will hold its grand opening on Saturday 6 December with commemorative t-shirts handed out to the first 2,500 visitors, according to the company’s website. Last year, it was reported that the Munich shop would be just one of approximately five Apple retail locations planned for Germany, with other locations expected in Berlin and Frankfurt. It is unclear if these plans have since changed.
