In the Neustadt, near Wexstraße, the craft of bookbinding is still alive and well! Whether it's your favourite books, presentation folders or a drinks menu: at Zwang B, traditional art is combined with modern products.

The workshop offers an interesting insight into one of the oldest crafts of our time. Who can claim to know how bookbinding is actually done? Here every piece is unique. Unique photo albums for weddings and births or the restoration of old albums and books that are dear to your heart - the classic craft finds its expression here.

Letters from Hamburg

Directly adjacent to the workshop there is also a paper shop with numerous stationery items. If you are looking for high-quality paper, envelopes or handmade products, you will find them here. In addition to stationery from Nepal, there is a selection of beautiful Japanese and Italian coloured papers. Maybe you could write a love letter again? In compulsion B you are well advised in any case.
