Worth knowing

• Germany has a liberal use of many aspects of the sex trade. There is a wide selection at a fairly high level at relatively low prices.

  Sex-Clubs

  In the urban agglomeration there are sex-clubs, some with wellness areas (sauna, solarium, swimming pool, Jacuzzi), in which the guest can spend time. These clubs usually charge an entrance fee of about EUR 20-60. Mostly soft drinks are included in the price, sometimes alcoholic beverages. The girls in the clubs are working on an independent basis, but all require the same price. Half an hour with a girl in the room will cost about EUR 40-80.

  Laufhaus

  A Laufhaus is a place where prostitutes rent a room, waiting for a suitor. The prostitutes normally pay day rentals and can arrange their work times and prices themselves. Sometimes the prices are set by the operator/owner. The guests walk through the corridors of the house (hence the name "Laufhaus" = "Walk House") to talk to the girls. Most brothels have no or only a small admission fee.

  Bordell, Brothel, Bordello

  Brothels are often specially equipped apartments. The customer chooses a girl (normally the girls present themselves naked or scantily clad in the entrance area in front of the customer) then goes in a room with her. Generally there is a shower in the room, in some places also a whirlpool. The number of girls working in a brothel is between 1 and 10. Compared to a sex-club with a public area, a brothel offers more privacy.

  Escort, Escort Agency

  An escort service provides women for hotel or home visits (out-call). In Germany there are several large escort agencies with up to 50 girls. There are also independent escort girls. Sex-Clubs and brothels often also offer escort service on request.

  Street prostitution

  Street prostitutes are mostly illegal immigrant women. Human trafficking and pimping in street prostitution is not unusual. In Germany, the supply of legally working women in sex-clubs, brothels and Escorts is very large. Consuming services from street prostitutes is not recommended.
