Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

A great souvenir shop about "Ampelmann" which is the iconic traffic light figure in East Berlin. There are a variety of gifts to buy, from magnets and postcards to t-shirts and candy.

We had no idea about the Ampelmann before visiting Berlin but as we were staying on the old east side we noticed the strange crossing symbols straight away. They are really cool and different so when we saw the shop we were always going to go, there is a wide range of things to buy and even a cafe which does a great Chai Latte. Situated on Unter Den Linden go and visit this shop as Ampelmann is the man!

Did some shopping there and with the Berlin city pass you can even get a bit of a discount. Prices were not so low but there's a wide variety of stuff that you can buy. Many of them were well-designed and looked very good as gifts for friends and families.

Brilliant shop, the Ampelmann has a great history, and they've then found ways to put him on pretty much EVERYTHING!
A great place to potter around and get souvenirs and presents from.
The shop also has a section of the Berlin Wall with an Ampelmann shape cut out, and then signed by David Hassellhof - as you do.

Not sure I've ever reviewed a store before... But, Ampelmann Shop is great! I love der Ampelmann (literally: traffic light man (or stop light man))! Such a cool thing to keep him around at the stoplights around the city, despite the fact it's a holdover from the former East Germany. A unique display of history, in my opinion. And, even cooler there are stores selling Ampelmann swag!

As for the store itself, there are some really cool gifts inside. Bought myself a very comfortable t-shirt.

So you see the bear everywhere. The Berlin bear in his funny little get ups and at tourist stops. But someone told me the "cool" souvenirs are from Ampelmann.

It's a neat little store with cool design and good merchandising. They have literally everything in the mans design. I mean everything. I got a safety vest for my oldest son and socks for me.

Fun, silly, and so Berlin!

As you walk Berlin, you will notice the odd crossing symbols. These are a relic to the cold war and East German. While much has changed in reunification, Ampelmann, the crossing symbol, has remained and stood the test of time. So endearing is he that he has his own line of retail and several stores, this being the original. We fell in love with Ampelmann and bought several souvenirs. If you spend more than 24 hours in Berlin, you will be hooked.

This is marketing on steroids, everything that can have an ampelmann put on it, has had the treatment. Fun and daft and strangely good.

We like the Ampelmann and thought it was definitely worth popping into the shop. There’s a large Ampelmann statue outside and every conceivable goodie inside!
