When the preposition answers the question Wo? (i.e. it indicates
location) you use the dative case.

Because you are talking about where the fridge is located, you
use the dative feminine: die Kche changes to der Kche.
When the preposition answers the question Wohin? (i.e. it
indicates motion or movement) you use the accusative case.
Ich gehe in die Kche.
Hnge den Spiegel an die Wand im Badezimmer.
