3D-Druck Führerschein

In the MakerLab, we provide various devices that you can use independently. To use our 3D printers, you need a valid library card and an introduction to the devices before using them. You can take this introduction with us. After the introduction, you can reserve the devices and complete your projects independently.

Here's what we'll show you:

• How do I correctly put the 3D printer into operation?
• What software can you use and what do you need to be aware of?
• What do you do if an error occurs during the printing process?
• Who do you contact if technical problems occur with the device?

Participation in the introductory session for those under 16 years of age is only possible when accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. As space is limited, accompanying persons must also book their own ticket.

The MakerLab is a place where curiosity is sparked and creative ideas are brought to life. A wide range of equipment, such as 3D printers, laser cutters, plotters, sewing and embroidery machines, are available for your own projects. You can find all the information and dates for the MakerLab here.

400 Jahre Reeperbahn - Teil 1

Everyone knows the Reeperbahn, but the story behind its name is unfamiliar to many! To mark the 400th anniversary of the Reeperbahn(s), the Museum of Hamburg History, in cooperation with local historian Eva Decker and renowned city historian Dominik Kloss, is offering a program dedicated to the origins and forerunners of the St. Pauli district: what role did the ropewalkers and their ropewalks play over the past 400 years, and how did they shape St. Pauli? What traces of their history can still be found today in the district and its eastern neighbors? The tour is divided into two 90-minute parts, taking place on consecutive Sundays. Alternating between the first and last two centuries since 1626, the tours explain the reasons for the repeated relocation of this unique craft outside the city walls and the development of the St. Pauli suburb – always following in the footsteps of the ropemakers and their guild, as well as the milieu in which they lived and worked. Note: Tours must be booked individually. Duration: 90 minutes. Cost: €10 per person (€5 reduced). Meeting point Part 1: In front of the Museum of Hamburg History, Holstenwall 24, 20355 Hamburg (end of Millerntor Guardhouse). Meeting point Part 2: In front of the Millerntor Guardhouse, Millerntorplatz 20, 20359 Hamburg (end of Beatles Square). Recommended for adults and young people aged 14 and over. Part 2 of the tour can be found here.

Alex Paxton: How to Eat Your Sexuality

»A musical party that sounds like late Beethoven on speed,« wrote the Stuttgarter Zeitung after the premiere of Alex Paxton’s »How to Eat Your Sexuality« in February 2025. The three-part work by the successful British composer, whose music The New York Times described with good reason as »the most cheerful sound in a long time«, is never cerebral, but rather direct, wild and colourful.
