- You help children learn German geography through play. The 16 pieces fit together like a puzzle, and the outline of each state is easy to recognise.
- Your wall picture fits exactly into the space you have planned for it. You can choose any height from 20 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
- You can start creating straight away, with no finishing work first. The laser cut leaves smooth edges that don't need sanding.
- Planning bigger projects is easy. You can order the cutouts individually or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100.
Why this wooden cutout makes a difference in everyday life
A wooden map you have designed yourself says more than a printed poster. It shows your own style – in the colours you chose and in the state that may be your home. Use it as wall decor in the hallway, as a learning game in the children's room or as a personal gift linked to a region. A simple cutout becomes a piece that suits you and your story.
Material & finish
Bütic laser-cuts the federal states from 3 mm poplar plywood in our own production in Pößneck (Thuringia). The laser cut gives clean, smooth edges. It also leaves the typical brown rim that traces each outline finely. The wood is untreated, neither varnished nor glazed. Paints, glues and oils stick to it particularly well. As a purely natural material, each piece shows its own grain, small colour differences or fine knots. This is not a flaw. It is what makes every piece one of a kind.

How to use the wooden federal states
- Crafting with children: each state gets its own colour. While putting the puzzle together, the little ones learn where Bavaria, Hesse and Saxony are.
- As wall decor: hang up just your home state, painted or left natural. Simple, and with a clear link to where you come from.
- As a gift idea: decorate the home state of friends or family. You give a piece of home that exists only once.
- In lessons or after-school care: with a set, each group makes its own map of Germany. Geography hardly gets more hands-on than this.
- In a shop or café: your state on the wall or in the shop window shows at a glance where you are at home. It is a regional connection your customers see straight away.
Good to know about the federal states
Since reunification in 1990, Germany has been made up of 16 federal states. They include the three city states of Berlin, Hamburg and Bremen. Their small outlines stand out when you do the puzzle. This structure makes the wooden pieces a clear learning aid. Once you have put the map together yourself, you won't quickly forget which state lies where.
Care & durability
There isn't much you need to do. Keep the untreated wood dry and simply wipe it with a dry cloth when needed. Avoid constant moisture. If you paint or oil the pieces, you give the surface extra protection and can enjoy your map for a long time.

Frequently asked questions
Can I paint the federal states or glue things onto them? Yes. The poplar plywood is untreated, neither varnished nor glazed. It takes acrylic paints, glues and oils very well.
Do the pieces really fit together like a puzzle? Yes. All 16 federal states are cut out separately. Put together, they form the complete map of Germany.
How big is the finished map? You choose the height yourself, between 20 and 50 cm. As a guide: at a height of 20 cm, the assembled map is 15 cm wide.
Why don't all the pieces look the same? Wood is a natural material. Different shades, fine textures in the grain and small knots are normal. This is exactly what makes each piece one of a kind.
The best part is the moment the last state slides into place. Your 16 pieces become your own map of Germany. Simply choose the height you want – individually or as a set.
