I am the great Ostheimer Whale. The ocean's depths are my sanctuary, an endless expanse of dark, mysterious waters that stretch far beyond what I can see. I move with slow, powerful strokes, my massive body gliding gracefully through the currents. The songs I sing resonate through the water, carrying messages to others of my kind across vast distances. 

Ostheimer Figures are hand-crafted in Germany, our lumber comes from sustainable domestic forestry. Each product is a unique item individually shaped with love and care. Thus, our toys allow children to immerse themselves into the vivid imaginative world of play. All materials used in our toys are certified. They guarantee not only toys of the highest quality but also safety for your child at play. 

Their form and colour are purposely kept to a minimum so that your child's fantasy world is preserved and so that their own creative imagination inspires their play. . There is no "right" or "wrong" way to play with Ostheimer buildings or animals and therein lies the beauty of these wonderful wooden toys. Over 50 years ago Margarete Ostheimer began a collection of toys which today more than ever is justified and necessary. The collection was established fifty years ago as an alternative to a "plastic world" and is today a necessary counterweight to the "high tech world" of the playroom.
