A stone's throw from the place where Johann Friedrich Miethe produced the first steam-powered chocolate, known far beyond the borders of the country, from 1830 to 1860, we want to give chocolate, cocoa and the craft of processing a grand, dignified and exciting setting.

The Old Market Square is considered the historical heart of Potsdam. Surrounded by magnificent buildings that unite different eras and architectural styles, it offers visitors a unique ensemble of culture, history, and vibrant urban space. For centuries, the square has been the stage for markets, festivals, and gatherings – thus providing the ideal setting to celebrate the culture of chocolate anew. With its central location, open expanse, and historic buildings, the Old Market Square creates an atmosphere that allows enjoyment, craftsmanship, and conviviality to be experienced in a dignified setting.
