Aachen Tattoo Studios

Aachen's position at the crossroads of Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands gives its tattoo scene a uniquely international flavour. RWTH Aachen's global student population and a stream of visitors from Liège and Maastricht ensure studios here maintain broad stylistic range and multilingual service.

The Innenstadt and the Peterstraße axis concentrate most of Aachen's top studios, all within easy reach of the Hauptbahnhof and the historic city core. NXT LVL INK stands out with more than 40 resident artists under one roof — one of the largest studio setups in western Germany.
