Voltage: 230V AC, 50Hz (standard European voltage)
Plug Types: Type C (two round pins) and Type F (two round pins with grounding clips) - standard European plugs
Adapter Needed: Visitors from UK, US, Canada, Australia need plug adapters. Type C/F adapters work for both socket types. Universal travel adapters cover all needs.
Voltage Converter: Most modern electronics (phones, laptops, cameras) are dual-voltage (110-240V) and only need a plug adapter, not a voltage converter. Check device specifications - if labeled '110-240V' or '100-240V', no converter needed.
Where to Buy: Adapters available at airport, electronics stores (Media Markt), and tourist shops. Hotels sometimes loan adapters - ask at reception.
Charging: USB charging ports increasingly common in modern hotels and public spaces. Bring your own USB cables.
Important: High-wattage devices (hair dryers, straighteners) require both adapter AND voltage converter if not dual-voltage. Many hotels provide hair dryers in rooms.
