Munich Apple Store opening draws huge crowd

by Dave Caolo (RSS feed) on Dec 8th, 2008


Here's a familiar story -- an Apple Store opening draws a huge crowd. This time, the store in question was Germany's very first. Construction on this location began all the way back in July of 2007, and we started to see job postings in May of this year. Some reports state that 4,000 people visited the store in the first few hours.

iPhone Savior reports that the day was busy but the crowd was handled efficiently. To get a glimpse of the throng, check out this cool Quicktime VR.

Congratulations, Munich! Enjoy your new Apple Store.

Apple posts job listings for Munich Apple Store

by Dave Caolo (RSS feed) on May 9th, 2008

In June of last year, we wrote about the Apple Store that has been planned for Munich, Germany. At the time, rumors identified an opening date of "...the 2nd half of 2008."

Today, Apple has posted several retail job openings for Munich, from concierge up to store manager; eleven in total. If they've begun looking for employees, the store must be near completion.

The iPhone was made available to Germans in November of last year, and a June store opening would coincide nicely with the rumored 3G iPhone release.

If you're a TUAW reader in Munich, head down to 1 Rosenstrasse (formerly home to Sport Schuster sporting goods) and let us know what you find! The time has almost come for Germany's first Apple Store!

Thanks, Chris!

Construction on Munich's Apple Store

by Dave Caolo (RSS feed) on Jun 10th, 2007

Workers are busily constructing Germany's first Apple Store in Munich. AppleInsider has photos of the 4 story construction project - and surrounding barricade - which is covered with iPod advertisements. There's certainly no question as to what they're building. It's scheduled to open in the 2nd half of 2008.

While we appreciate the sneak-peak that AppleInsider has provided, we know you can do better. If you're near 1 Rosenstrasse in Munich (formerly home to Sport Schuster sporting goods) let us know what's going on! We're excited to see the launch of such a huge flagship store (and Germany's first!).
