Germany Construction, Closure, and Bears

We noted a few new construction walls in the Germany pavilion of EPCOT today.

The Germany restroom is behind walls, as shown below. The closest operational restrooms are in Norway or the American Adventure.

The restrooms may be inaccessible, but there are several benches lining the new construction walls.

Der Teddybär in the Germany Pavilion has reopened and is now fully stocked with an array of Disney and standard Steiff plush picks. We always recommend Steiff as a souvenir ~ especially if you have an Annual Pass discount.

Der Teddybär did not reopen after the pandemic and Volkskunst became the central staging place for a mishmash of Rapunzel and Snow White toys, German snacks and candy, steins, German Christmas merch, and cuckoo clocks.

Volkskunst is now closed and no reopening date has been announced.

The Stein Haus is open for regular hours (9am to 9pm) during construction but is only accessible through side entrances leading to other shops. The front door of the Stein Haus is not accessible.

Even with a few new walls and no restroom stop, the Germany pavilion is still worth exploring. Check out our Five Things to Know About the Germany Pavilion of EPCOT.
