3D map of a German city: from Berlin to Zurich
Millions of people call two cities home: the one they were born in and the one they moved to. A 3D map of a German city keeps the second one close — a three-dimensional model of a Berlin, Munich or Hamburg district with real streets, buildings and parks from OpenStreetMap data.
Cities already in the builder
Berlin, Munich, Hamburg, Cologne, Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Düsseldorf, Leipzig, Dresden, Nuremberg — plus Vienna, Salzburg, Zurich and Geneva. Each has a ready page with examples, but the builder works for any point on Earth: find the city on the map and move the frame.
Mixed districts look best: Kreuzberg with its canal, Munich's Altstadt with the Isar, Hamburg's Speicherstadt with its waterways. Water and parks print in separate colours, so a river or lake instantly lifts the model.
How it works
Open the builder, find the city, move the frame over the district — a live 3D model assembles in two minutes. Then two paths: order an Eco PLA print shipped by Nova Poshta across Ukraine, or download the 3MF/STL and print it yourself on a Bambu Lab or Prusa.
Sizes range from a 6 cm fridge magnet to a wall panel. A file for self-printing costs a few euros; a finished print starts at ≈€8.
Who gets one as a gift
Ukrainians in Germany — a map of their hometown next to a map of the new one. German friends — the district they grew up in. Long-distance couples — two puzzle keychains with two cities that click together. A housewarming — the new neighbourhood with engraved coordinates.
The builder works in English, German and Ukrainian — a map of Berlin is as easy as a map of Kyiv.
