About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. Late one night, as a delivery driver unloaded groceries into EDEKA Baur’s backroom, he swore he heard someone humming softly in German. The sound grew louder and more distinct with each box placed on the shelf, until it seemed like an entire choir was singing just for him. Curious, he stopped his work and looked around. In the dim light, he thought he saw shadows moving among the shelves. Turning up the store lights revealed nothing but empty aisles. Shaking his head, he finished loading the last crate—and then realized he’d left his coffee thermos in the truck. Back outside, he called out to a nearby neighbor for company. Together they returned to EDEKA Baur, only to find everything quiet again. ‘Probably just the wind,’ chuckled the neighbor, sipping his own warm drink.
2. Late one night, as a delivery driver unloaded groceries into EDEKA Baur’s backroom, he noticed something strange: every time he placed an item on the shelf, it would mysteriously disappear before morning. Finally, after days of puzzling, the delivery driver found a small hole in the ceiling above the shelves. Turns out, a squirrel had made its home there and was stealing snacks during the night. The next day, with a smile, our hero installed a fake squirrel to scare away the real one—and no more items went missing.
3. Late one night, as a delivery driver unloaded groceries into EDEKA Baur’s backroom, he noticed something peculiar: every time he placed an item on the shelf, it would mysteriously disappear before anyone else entered the store. Finally, after hours of puzzling, the delivery driver found a tiny door behind the cheese section. Inside was a small creature who explained that it loved stealing snacks and hiding them in its secret cave. The two struck a deal: the driver would bring extra goodies for the little guy, and in return, everything stayed where it belonged. From then on, late-night shoppers often caught glimpses of a friendly shadow darting between aisles—an unlikely partnership between man and mouse.
4. Late one night, as a delivery driver unloaded groceries into EDEKA Baur’s backroom, he noticed something odd in the dairy section—milk bottles seemed to be spinning slowly on their own. Curious, he followed the movement and saw that the milk was rotating around an invisible vortex created by the air conditioning vent above. Shaking his head with a smile, he decided it was just another quirky trait of old EDEKA Baur. Back home, he mentioned it to his wife, who laughed and said, ‘That’s why they say you never know what you’ll find at EDEKA!’
