Museo Arqueológico de Hamburgo (Casa de Exposiciones)

In the beginning, there was fire. Significant inventions became possible with the mastery of fire: firing ceramics, processing ores into metals, the steam engine. These innovations were the starting point for industrialization, without which our modern world would not be conceivable. The tour through the archaeological exhibition leads from the beginnings in the Stone Age to the present day and highlights the importance of inventions for human history. The hand axe and spearhead, bow and arrow, wheel and wagon are just as much in focus as cooking pots, bronze jewelry, and iron swords.
