A device for microscopically precise positioning and guidance of a measurement or manipulation element in at least two spatial axes, comprising an outer base with side walls defining a base interior, and an xy-stage having side walls and mounting means for at least one measurement or manipulation element, the xy-stage being arranged inside of the base interior and being displaceable in an XY-plane relative to the outer base. The xy-stage is coupled to the outer base with bending elements, and with actuators designed for displacing the xy-stage relative to the outer base. The outer base is provided with at least one stiffening element rigidly connected to the side walls of the outer base, and/or that the xy-stage is provided with at least one stiffening element rigidly connected to the side walls of the xy-stage.
