Chocolate is a hit across all ages. The child in us springs forth whenever the opportunity to eat chocolate presents itself. A chocolate speaks a thousand words, but, do you know the origins of chocolate? Or even how it’s produced for that matter? To quell both your curiosity and your taste buds, head over to the Chocolate Museum or the Schokoladen Museum. Undoubtedly one of the most popular tourist attractions, this river side museum is often crowded to capacity.

The Schokoladen Museum is the one place which actually celebrates chocolate going as far back as 3000 years, from the days of the Mayans to the industrialization in Europe. Complete with conveyor belts, tasting rooms and the perpetually exciting chocolate fountain, are all available for your perusal.
