166 m of the Silberturm, 45 mm on your shelf

Make this print opens the generator on a 600 m square around the landmark. Buildings print at close to true scale, so the landmark grows with the print size.

  1. Tall tower, slow printing

    A tall tower loses fine detail at small sizes. A larger print keeps more of it; printing slowly with good cooling helps tall parts hold their shape.

  2. One piece with the ground

    The Silberturm is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.

  3. Pick the detail for your nozzle

    In the Buildings settings, set Landmark detail to Print friendly to adapt thin parts and small details to the print scale. Full detail keeps every modeled feature, for larger prints or a finer nozzle.

  4. Colors

    Buildings, roads, water and ground arrive as separate filament slots in the 3MF. The Silberturm takes the building color.

  5. File format

    You get a 3MF for Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer or PrusaSlicer. Any of them can save it as STL if you need one.

About the Silberturm

The Silberturm (Silver Tower) rises 166.3 m (546 ft) over the Bahnhofsviertel district of Frankfurt, Germany, as a futurist skyscraper with 32 stories. It was formerly called Dresdner-Bank-Hochhaus and also Jürgen-Ponto-Hochhaus. From 1978 until 1990 it was Germany's tallest building. Bilfinger Berger built it at Jürgen-Ponto-Platz, a square that opens onto Kaiserstrasse. Jürgen Ponto, a former Dresdner Bank CEO, was murdered in 1977 by Red Army Faction members, and the square carries his name.

Two floors lie underground and 32 rise above it. Standard floors are 4.2 m high and cover 1,900 square meters, and the building stands on a reinforced concrete slab 4.0 m thick. In plan it consists of two large rounded squares offset from each other by several meters. In the niches this creates on each side sit two elongated rounded rectangles, which contain the elevators and emergency stairs. The rounded corners recur in the windows and pillars. A swimming pool occupied the 31st floor until 1994, when it became a conference room.

The Silberturm and Gallusanlage 8, a seven-story building, served as Dresdner Bank's headquarters from 1978 to 2008. After Commerzbank took over Dresdner Bank in early 2009, the whole high-rise was leased on a long-term basis to Deutsche Bahn in summer 2009. The building was used as a setting in the 1984 German film Abwärts, and it stands across the street from Skyper.

About this model

The Silberturm is one of more than 5,500 landmark models in Mini Skyline. They are made with AI, and each one is checked from four sides in its real surroundings before release. Each model is written as code from public descriptions, plans, photographs and aerial views used only as references; no image or third-party model is copied into it. Everything around it is built from OpenStreetMap and Overture map data. Rights in the building itself, its name and any brands on it are not granted by Mini Skyline; clear them separately before you sell prints. If you would rather print the shape from map data, turn off Landmark models in the Buildings settings.
