Hammermuseum Frankfurt, Hammer museum in Bahnhofsviertel district, Frankfurt, Germany

The museum displays over 2,500 hammers of different sizes and forms on the first floor of the Lenz cobbler shop in Münchener Straße 36.

Established in 2005 by Oskar Mahler, the Hammermuseum Frankfurt maintained the second largest collection of hammers in Germany until its closure in 2019.

The exhibition incorporated references to international artists like Man Ray, Marcel Duchamp, Andy Warhol, and Yoko Ono alongside traditional hammer displays.

The museum restricted visitor numbers to 15 people at once due to the structural limitations of the historic building housing the collection.

The collection included numerous hammers from different periods whose specific functions remained unexplained by experts in the field.
