Morawa Bookshop in Vienna

Morawa Bookshop in Vienna

This was a wonderful find!

Morawa is one of Austria’s largest bookselling companies with a total of 18 locations. I visited one in the centre of Vienna and headed on down to hunt out some German literary delights. I don’t read German fluently but since learning Dutch, it’s all coming back to me!

Had to go and find this beauty first of all…………

A lovely English section – very big and lots of of the latest titles. But it was the German language section that really caught my eye….. books as far as the eye can see………………

This section was interesting – ‘Local murders’ where there are entire series of books where murders happen in the city of Vienna and surrounding area. Great idea to band them together!

Downstairs there were even more bookish delights:

This was a very cool idea – a selfie wall with a nice bench to sit on and take photos. Lots of people did when I was there. Did I do this? Yes of course. It’s Austrian law apparently.

Before I left, I said hello to a dear friend…

Be sure to go here when in Vienna. There are also tote bags with cool German sayings on them as well…..Sssh!
