Libro – Bookshop and Crafts in Vienna

  • Submitted: 6th July 2025

Libro

This caught my eye as its name is the Spanish word for Book. But I was in Vienna so I went into have a look and there ARE books but there are also crafts and stationery.

It’s an unique store – bit of a mix between The Works in the UK and Paperchase. A good book selection of new titles though!

I always like the name of the crime fiction section in Germany or Austria – Spannung which translates as ‘Tension’

Well, they’re not wrong…..and I love the detective silhouette!

Several signs dotted around the store telling readers book tips and news about upcoming titles….

Who else looks for their favourite titles in another language? Which ones can you spot here?

A small section compared to other stores but with the crafts AND the books in one place, it really was a fine place to be!
