Deutsches Kochbuchmuseum, Cookbook museum in Dortmund, Germany.

The Deutsches Kochbuchmuseum maintains a collection of 14,000 titles, including cookbooks, encyclopedias, guides, and educational materials about kitchen and household management.

Opening its doors in 1988 as an extension of the Museum for Art and Cultural History, the institution operated in Westfalenpark Dortmund until early 2011.

The museum documents cooking traditions through displays of doll kitchens, stoves, cooking utensils, and recipe collections that reflect German regional influences.

The library remains accessible by appointment on Wednesdays from 10:00 to 14:00, with extended hours until 17:00 on the first Wednesday of each month.

Henriette Davidis, who resided in Dortmund from 1856 to 1876, stands as the central figure in the museum's historical narrative of German culinary literature.
