On Wednesday, November 4, 2026, the youth library of the Ernst-Abbe-Bibliothek Jena will be a meeting place for teenagers aged 12 and up. At the Gamezone, shared video gaming, exchanging ideas with friends, and an active family and youth experience in a safe library environment are the focus.

Gaming Tower for Curious Players

At the Gaming Tower, teens can play video games together from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM. The open atmosphere invites them to try out new games, test their own skills, and engage in conversations with other teens. Laughter from children, concentration, and shared joy of playing combine digital learning experiences with social interaction.

Alternative for Younger Gaming Fans

For younger gaming enthusiasts, the Ernst-Abbe-Bibliothek offers the Game On program. It takes place on Thursdays from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM in the workshop and is aimed at children up to 12 years old.
