The following article aims to present partial outputs of the project TAČR (TL03000679) - Reduction of information deficit and development of the imagination of people with visual impairment through 3D models with auditory elements. The project is currently in the final part of its solution. This paper will not only present the project goals but mainly focus on the outputs and partial results achieved so far. The paper will focus not only on 3D printing but mainly on the outcomes aimed at developing the spatial imagination of people with severe visual impairment.

Keywords: people with visual impairment, 3D models, historical monuments, modelling
