Couven Museum

Baroque townhouse museum showing bourgeois life across three centuries

A well-preserved 18th-century bourgeois townhouse in the old centre of Aachen, decorated with period furniture, porcelain, and household objects that reconstruct domestic life from the baroque through the early industrial era. The rooms feel lived-in rather than museum-sterile — faience stoves, lacquered cabinets, and a complete apothecary from the 1700s among the highlights. Small enough to see thoroughly in under an hour.
