Design: At our Photo Stations

Settings on various themes invite you to experiment for yourself: Reflections, light and shadow, colour moods, movement and wind offer opportunities for unusual photos and demonstrate the many possibilities and facets of creative image design. Take a professional self-portrait and take the photos home with you as a souvenir.

Experience: Photography, History, Technology

Immerse yourself in Leica's traditional company history and browse through Oskar Barnack's workshop book. Which shutter sound belongs to which Leica camera? Test your hearing or build a lens yourself and follow the live simulation of the optical path on a monitor. Finally, in our interactive "darkroom" you can experience all the steps of analogue development - and test them directly on a picture you have taken yourself.
