The globe has no end and no beginning. And yet it offers an important perspective: To grasp the world at a glance. We have been producing our globes by hand for 115 years. Each model is a unicum of the highest precision - but with a bit of soul that makes every piece of craftsmanship unmistakable. COLUMBUS-Globes, perfection all round.
Welcome to COLUMBUS
Tradition is high up on our agenda. But the oldest still producing globe manufacturer has far more to offer.
All our globes and maps are developed and produced in Germany.
The maps are hand-coated onto mouth-blown globe spheres with passion and devotion.
Precisely because we, as a globe manufacturer, view our world every day, we give special consideration to sustainability regarding our products and our interaction with employees and customers.
The experience that has now grown for over more than five generations makes COLUMBUS the leading brand for globes in specialized trade and the innovation driver in the entire industry.
