Patents made in Germany: big and small inventions that influence our lives

From ingenious everyday inventions to results of highly complex research: the DPMA poster gallery shows what people can achieve with creativity and innovative spirit in a wide range of fields. It presents selected inventions that have been registered at the German Patent and Trade Mark Office (DPMA) and its predecessor offices since 1877.

The collection provides an overview of German technological history, enables basic insights into how many inventions work - and is at the same time a treasure trove of exciting stories and anecdotes.

Please find here the list of the available posters (all PDF files are in German only).

The posters of our gallery can be ordered in DIN A3 format free of charge.
